Abstract:

UNC professor Jordynn Jack studied the ethics and scientific rhetoric used by mea and women working on the Manhattan Project. Jack found there was a difference between some of the scientists who seemed to be good at persuading and others who were not. Scientists who argued in terms of safety were less effective than those who argued in terms of what would move the project forward.
