The book interweaves the serious radiation safety issues against prevailing social issues and the fascinating history of test firings of nuclear weaponry. The role of key individuals in shaping policy is objectively demonstrated for both strategic defense as well as safety issue…
This book shows that the medical consequences of low-dose, low-rate exposures to ionizing radiation have been overestimated by certain scientists, which apparently occurred in accordance with unofficial policies and directives. It analyses and exposes the biases and hidden confl…
