Dr. James N. Yamasaki was Physician in Charge of the United States Atomic Bomb Casualty Commission in 1949.   He was sent to Japan to study the effects of the atomic bomb on humans.  British forces refused to house him in Hiroshima so he made Nagasaki his area of research. Using declassified government bomb test films, found footage, and the original art of atomic bomb survivors, Dr. Yamazaki discusses what a nuclear bomb is, what it does, and the grave danger all of humanity still faces with the proliferation of weapons throughout the world.

Produced in conjunction with the Asian American Studies Center, University of California, Los Angeles. See www.childrenoftheatomicbomb.com for survivor art, video clips, articles by Dr. Yamazaki, lesson plans, and other links.
