In the Matter of J. Robert Oppenheimer; A Play Freely Adapted on the Basis of the Documents by Heinar Kipphardt.

Kipphardt uses the facts taken from the published transcript to present some fundamental issues which face the world today--the conflict between the responsibility of the individual to his country and to humanity as a whole, the right of the patriot to express views at odds with those of his government without his loyalty being called into question.
