If you live near a nuclear power plant or are concerned with the American quality of life and environment, you should read this book.
The author is a semi-retired nuclear professional with over 4 decades’ experience that includes being a former holder of a US NRC Senior Reactor Operator license, Radiation Protection Manager at multiple nuclear power plants, and president of a key nuclear industry support company.
The author describes to the reader the importance of radiation protection and why nuclear safety and radiation protection are now in serious jeopardy due to the severe economic pressure being exerted on nuclear power plants from the very low price of natural gas and the long-awaited emergence of wind and solar technology as viable power sources. The author reminds us of the inherent hazard of nuclear power and briefly revisits some critical failures in the history of the nuclear power industry.
