#twitterstorians! Got a bibliography question. What are the top 5 books on the organization of science during WWII--basically, books on the NRDC/OSRD. Obviously the bios of V. Bush, but I need 5 most important books on the subject. @ColdWarScience in particular might know

Yeah, I basically need to place the Microwave Committee in its larger institutional context
"Dr. Bush... our project... it's complete..." (unveils Totino's Pizza Rolls) Bush: "My god... we only asked whether we could do it, not whether we should..." Sorry, couldn't resist.

I like all the postwar books about organization (there was one written by Charles A.H. Thomson about US information policy) bc they make it seems like there were extremely strict divisions, whereas in actuality everything was so extremely informal and personalist
