<HTML>The previous poster did not say he is an expert (which is not to say that he isn\'t either). Neither did he say he read one book
(on the contrary: he provided several references, and may well have more available).
In any case, all experts start by reading books (that\'s one of the things that people call \"studying\" or \"doing research\" :-). History experts often have little else to base their expertise on, and (for instance) lots of nuclear energy experts have little other than paper experience anyway (at least personally).
To get at least somewhat back on topic, as long as the classified A-bomb documents are classified, there possibly are two kinds of experts concerning this topic: those who have written/read the documents (note that these people may all actually be dead), and those who haven\'t. Since the former are not allowed/able to talk, the latter are the only/best experts available.
I find it interesting that people read some one elses posts and then consider themselves more \"expert\" because they happen to know/think/have heard/... (*) that some source are still classified.
(*) For clarity: I have very little doubt (note that I do *not* say \"no doubt\", because that would basically require me to have seen them myself) that there still are classified documents regarding this matter, so that\'s not the issue here.
