[kj] "Brighter Than A Thouand Suns" by Robert Jungk

[Brendan Quinn]

Another reference to that quote Olly (actually "Brighter than 10 000 Suns"),
I found it the other day, tried to email it to you but I think it bounced:

5:20...but the whole thing is pretty interesting to watch...strikes me as
similar to a DMT trip actually...but his experience is pretty profound
regardless.

Brighter than a Thousand Suns: A Personal History of the Atomic 
Scientists (Paperback)
by Robert Jungk


This edition dates to 1970, believe it was written in the 1950s. The 
epigraph in the beginning of the book quotes the Bhagavad Gita's passage 
about "the radiance of a thousand suns," whih could also translate to 
"brightness"/"brighter."
