| Abstract | This publication is a complete revision of an earlier booklet brought on by the dramatic changes in the energy outlook of the United States that occurred in 1973 and 1974.

The question and answer format is retained from the earlier version. Topics covered include: (1) Economics and Reliability; (2) Sources of Radiation; (3) Biological Effects of Radiation; (4) Plutonium Toxicity; (5) Thermal Discharges; (6) Safety: Emergency Core Cooling; (7) Benefit and Risk Perspective; and (8) Breeder Reactors. A bibliography is included. The authors are proponents of nuclear power and they have endeavored to present objective information in this publication. (MR) |
