| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Atomic Bonanza" by George O. Smith is a science fiction novella published in the early 1950s. The story explores the potential of a revolutionary device capable of decontaminating radioactive materials, developed by the enigmatic Doctor Velikof. The narrative captures the tension between scientific principles and the chaotic world of business, highlighting the intersection of innovation and skepticism during a time when atomic science was rapidly evolving. The plot revolves around the conflict between Phillip Newton, the Director of Operations, and Howard Mangler, the Director of Research, as they engage in a fierce debate about their differing opinions on a machine that claims to eliminate radioactivity from materials. Newton, driven by a desire to procure the technology despite Mangler's vehement objections, eventually meets Velikof and witnesses a demonstration that seems miraculous. However, the story takes a twist when it is revealed that Velikof's machine is a cleverly disguised hoax. Newton, playing on Mangler's scientific expertise, successfully maneuvers the situation to his advantage while denouncing the supposed efficacy of the device. The narrative not only raises questions about the interplay of science and profitability but also critiques the gullibility that can stem from blind belief in technological marvels.
