Nuclear Choices for the Twenty-First Century: A Citizen's Guide
Richard Wolfson and Ferenc Dalnoki-Veress
Nuclear Choices for the Twenty-First Century: A Citizen’s Guide is a must-read book if you’re interested in anything nuclear. Many people watched the Netflix series about Chernobyl and, for many of us, it was the first time we really started to understand how a nuclear power plant works. This book is a chance to get better educated not just about nuclear power, but every aspect of nuclear, from the basic physics to nuclear weapons and medical technologies. It tries to take a disinterested approach, presenting the pros and cons, so we can each make a decision we’re comfortable with about the role of nuclear technology in our societies.
