Reviews
"One Nation Undergroundvividly evokes a fast-fading era of U.S. history when millions of Americans contemplated the prospect of huddling in underground shelters to escape the blast and radiation of thermonuclear war. Kenneth D. Rose brings into sharp focus these years when nuclear fear pervaded American public life and culture, gripping Pentagon Strategists, civil-defense planners, theologians, magazine editors, and the authors of comic books and science-fiction stories. Beautifully written, copiously illustrated, and drawing upon an amazing range of sources, this engrossing book should be read by anyone interested in the domestic fallout of the Cold War nuclear arms race." - Paul S. Boyer, author ofBy the Bomb's Early Light and Culture at the Dawn of the Atomic Age, "This compelling chronicle of the civil defense debate during the early years of the Cold War shows how discussions of the pros and cons of fallout shelters forced Americans to face the possible consequences of nuclear war and what kind of world any survivors would inhabit. In the national soul-searching that ensued, citizens confronted their deepest fears, values, and attitudes about themselves, their neighbors, and their world. One Nation Underground reminds us of the real terror that gripped the world in the tense years of nuclear brinksmanship." - Elaine Tyler May, author of Homeward Bound: American Families in the Cold War Era, "This fascinating and illuminating study ably traces Civil Defense from Bert the Turtle's school drills in the 1950s to backyard family shelters in the early sixties. As Kenneth Rose insightfully shows, Americans, panicked over Cold War tensions and the threat of thermonuclear incineration, talked inordinately about fallout shelters, but few were ever built. That discrepancy reveals much about American society, culture, and psychology. This book almost glows in the dark." - W. J. Rorabaugh, author ofBerkeley at War: The 1960s, "Kenneth Rose'sOne Nation Undergroundexplores U.S. nuclear history from the bottom up—literally. . . . Rose deserves credit for not trivializing this period of our history, as so many retrospectives of the Cold War era have tended to do." -Journal of Cold War Studies, "Kenneth Rose's One Nation Underground explores U.S. nuclear history from the bottom up--literally. . . . Rose deserves credit for not trivializing this period of our history, as so many retrospectives of the Cold War era have tended to do." - Journal of Cold War Studies ,, ("Negotiating Justice is a compelling glimpse into a world that most lawyers never visit." )-(California Lawyer),(), "This fascinating and illuminating study ably traces Civil Defense from Bert the Turtle's school drills in the 1950s to backyard family shelters in the early sixties.

Rose deserves credit for not trivializing this period of our history, as so many retrospectives of the Cold War era have tended to do." - Journal of Cold War Studies ,, " Negotiating Justice is one of those exceedingly rare books that examine how lawyers and clients collaborate to produce legality. These stories will be an inspiration to law students aspiring to work in the public interest and an affirmation for the thousands of lawyers who do so daily." - -Richard Abel, author of English Lawyers between Market and State: The Politics of Professionalism, ( "InNegotiating Justice: Progressive Lawyering, Low-Income Clients, and the Quest for Social Change, Corey S. Shdaimah breaks new ground by exploring not only the lawyers', but also the clients/ understanding of the work that these lawyers do within the legal system-a system preceived by bothe to be inequitable." )-(Seher Goderya),( Osgoode Hall Law Journal ), "This fascinating and illuminating study ably traces Civil Defense from Bert the Turtle's school drills in the 1950s to backyard family shelters in the early sixties.

Boyer, author of By the Bomb's Early Light and Culture at the Dawn of the Atomic Age, ("This volume is an excellent addition to the law and society literature addressing themes of cause lawyering and consciousness. Through over 50 interviews with urban service lawyers and clients, Shdaimah thoughtfully draws out the ways that the relationships between lawyers and clients address values of social justice, autonomy, collaboration, and understanding...
