Nuclear Power: Necessary Evil or a Force that's Wrecking the Planet?

The aim of this discourse is not to rant but to present to you the reader with what mankind has done with the natural world as a consequence of his foray into the world of atoms and how (I and many others would argue) the nuclear power industry has irrevocably changed the planet. The book detail what radioactivity actually is and how it affects living systems. There is a discussion concerning nuclear waste and past accidents. To maintein balance, there is also a section which details the benefits of nuclear power. This ebook should appeal to anyone who wants to be more informed about nuclear issues. It is jargon-free.
