Philip Morrison, one of a generation of physicists who built the first
atomic bomb at Los Alamos, only to spend the rest of their careers
campaigning against nuclear weapons, has died at the age of 89.
Morrison spent most of his career at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, where he was appointed Institute Professor, the highest
honour awarded by MIT, in 1973.
