520    At a time when the Manhattan Project was synonymous with 
       large-scale science, physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer (1904
       -67) represented the new sociocultural power of the 
       American intellectual. Catapulted to fame as director of 
       the Los Alamos atomic weapons laboratory, Oppenheimer 
       occupied a key position in the compact between science and
       the state that developed out of World War II. By tracing 
       the making - and unmaking - of Oppenheimer's wartime and 
       postwar scientific identity, Charles Thorpe illustrates 
       the struggles over the role of the scientist in relation 
       to nuclear weapons and the state.
