This volume is designed to bring together a set of publications which will not only summarize the various investigations undertaken during the course of this program but also reflect the evolution of the program as it attempted to incorporate the new genetic technologies as they emerged. As the study has unfolded, it mirrors much of the amazing history of human (and general) genetics since World War II. The attempt to determine the nature and extent of the genetic effects of the atomic bombs detonated over Hiroshima and Nagasaki is at this writing by any one of several criteria far and away the most extensive exercise in genetic epidemiology ever undertaken.
