More than just your run-of-the-mill coffee table making of book with the usual movie stills, Unleashing Oppenheimer showcases a huge collection of pre-production material, in particular the superbly detailed and meticulously constructed white models for the Los Alamos set that would be built at Ghost Ranch. The Post Production chapter that talks about the use of practical effects rather that CGI to realize the visual effects of the test explosions are also very interesting.
