India is for me a difficult country. It isn't my home and cannot be my home; and yet I cannot reject it or be indifferent to it; I cannot travel only for the sights.
In 1962 the novelist V. S. Nat paul paid his first visit to India, the country from which his grandfather had emigrated to Trinidad in the 19th century. The result was his widely acclaimed An Area of Darkness. This week sees the publication of his latest book India: A Wounded Civilisation, the product of a more recent visit, and he talks about it with CHARLES WHEELER.

Introduced by John Maddox
In 1942 J. Robert Oppenheimer was given charge of ' Project Y ', the building of a laboratory at the Los Alamos Ranch School in New Mexico. Many of the world's leading scientists went to work there, and their first product was ' Trinity ' - the Atomic Bomb. John Maddox visited Los Alamos recently and talked with some of the veterans of ' Project Y ' about the laboratory's invention of the atomic and hydrogen bombs, and its current research - some of it peaceful, some looking towards the next generation of nuclear weapons.
