Gaynor was also the editor of the Encyclopedia of Atomic Energy. Described as the first comprehensive and up-to-date, for the period of the Korean War, definitive glossary covering all branches of the armed forces. Contains over 7000 terms, including missiles, rocketry, atomic & radioactive weapons, chemical & biological warfare, radar, sonar, loran, etc. This is an especially important reference work for understanding the state of knowledge, and to an extent the state of practice, of military equipment, technology, planning, and tactics that incorporated many of the lessons of the Second World War and served as a baseline for the Korean War era.
