The Moon of Doom by Earl L. Bell:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas

Widespread use of atomic energy formed a field that pulled on the Moon, affecting tides and the Earth's rotation as well as cooling. In just a few short months, the Earth's technological civilization was wrecked entirely. The Moon captured some of Earth's atmosphere, making it a possible refuge for the few remaining humans. Relics of an extinct civilization of Moonmen is discovered. Tidal forces wreck the Moon, and it withdraws, allowing the Earth to revive.
