1. Introduction: Visualizing Nuclear Power in Japan -- 2. Before and After Hiroshima -- 3. Picturing Hiroshima -- 4. The Beginnings of Atoms for Peace in Japan -- 5. Nuclear Testing in the Pacific: The Lucky Dragon Incident and the Family of Man -- 6. Living in Fear: Nuclear Films -- 7. Making Atomic Dreams Real: 1956-1958 -- 8. Seeing Reactors at Tokai-mura, Trade Fairs, Department Stores and in Films: 1957-1971 -- 9. Shaping the National Narrative: From Hiroshima to Fukushima and Beyond -- 10. Conclusion.

This book explores how Japanese views of nuclear power were influenced not only by Hiroshima and Nagasaki but by government, business and media efforts to actively promote how it was a safe and integral part of Japan's future. The idea of "atoms for peace" and the importance of US-Japan relations were emphasized in exhibitions and in films. Despite the emergence of an anti-nuclear movement, the dream of civilian nuclear power and the "good atom" nevertheless prevailed and became more accepted. By the late 1950s, a school trip to see a reactor was becoming a reality for young Japanese, and major events such as the 1964 Tokyo Olympics and 1970 Osaka Expo seemed to reinforce the narrative that the Japanese people were destined for a future led by science and technology that was powered by the atom, a dream that was left in disarray after the Fukushima nuclear disaster in 2011.
