This book outlines the development of a young lad who was evacuated from London in 1944 to avoid the V1 and V2 attacks. After the war he became an international athlete, a well published research scientist, and went on to take a leading role in the development of Britain\'s nuclear deterrent.\\n\\n\\nThe circle was completed when he led British involvement in the American Star Wars program, by helping to create a system that could intercept the type of missiles that had forced him to become an evacuee decades earlier. His early school years shaped an approach to life that enabled Stanley to succeed so spectacularly and we are taken from his childhood in Wartime London to success at University, to the Atomic Weapons Research Establishment and onto Diplomacy at the very highest level of British and American Nuclear Activity.\\xa0 How secret diplomacy can even be conducted in Washington, a location that at times leaks like a sieve. How life is conducted in Britain\'s largest Embassy in Washington, and how international defense programs are really managed.'
