| book description |

People today worry about threats from radiation exposure. Such concerns have been backed up in the past when A-bombs were used in Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II, and from exposures which resulted from accidents in nuclear power plants in Chernobyl and Fukushima. In the past decade, knowledge of the effects of radiation at the molecular level, including DNA damage and repair, has advanced dramatically. This book describes the current state of knowledge in the fields of radiation effects, the medical uses of radiation, and radiation protection. It also considers past nuclear disasters, including the accident at Fukushima, and trends in nuclear disarmament.
