Commonsense in Nuclear Energy Hardback
by Fred Hoyle, Geoffrey Hoyle
Part of the Routledge Revivals series
Hardback
Description
Originally published in 1979, written at a time when the world stood on the brink of (another) energy crisis, this book argued that an alternative primary fuel had to be found and that the answer lay in the exploitation of nuclear fission.
The book sought to dispel the anxieties of environmentalists by correcting what the authors felt were basic misconceptions about nuclear energy.
The book distinguishes carefully between nuclear energy and nuclear explosions, as the authors believed that it was the confusion between these two very different things which lies at the root of most opposition to nuclear energy.
The Relevant facts concerning nuclear energy are presented in a straightforward way and the case made that nuclear energy can be clean and safe.
The book includes a discussion of the storage of nuclear waste and the safety record of the nuclear industry.
