The 1970 Bombing of the Army Math
Research Center at the University of
Wisconsin and It's Aftermath.
RADS chronicles the remarkable series
of events around one of the country's
single most destructive acts of sabotage
resulting from the passions and follies
of the sixties.
"I Bates'J narrative of the bombing
and the flight, capture and trial of the
culprits, is absorbing, but what renders
the book memorable is his brilliant
recreation af the protest movement
and the self-defeating tactics of both
the militants and the authorities."
