Bikini Atoll. Windscale. Chernobyl. Fukushima. These Names No Longer Denote A Place, But A Disaster. In A Few Syllables, They Evoke The Heights Of Human Ingenuity Clashing With The Worst Of Human Error. Individually, Each Place Has Its Own Sobering Story To Tell; Together, They Form A Timeline Of The Nuclear Age. In This Compelling And Deeply Researched Book, Fred Pearce Investigates The Greatest Nuclear Incidents And Accidents Of The Past 80 Years By Visiting Their Now Iconic Landscapes. He Tours Former Power Stations And Abandoned Testing Sites In The Company Of Scientists And Engineers; And In Toxic Wastelands, Where Radioactive Wolves Now Stalk The Streets , He Witnesses The Surprising Resilience Of Nature. As Well As The Radiological Legacy, Pearce Also Considers The Psychological Impact Of These Disasters. Amid Rumours Of State Cover-ups, Corporate Deception, And Hushed-up Medical Epidemics, Pearce Expertly Weighs The Evidence On Either Side Of The Argument To Disentangle The Facts From The Fear And Reveal The Truth About Radiation.
