What is Nuclear Energy in the 21st Century: World Nuclear University Press about?
The onset of the 21st century has coincided with mounting scientific evidence of the severe environmental impact of global energy consumption. In response, governments and environmentalists on every continent have begun to re-evaluate the benefits of nuclear power as a clean, non-emitting energy resource. Today nuclear power plants operate in some 30 countries, and nuclear energy has become a safe and reliable source of one-sixth of the world’s electricity. This base has the potential to be expanded widely as part of a worldwide clean-energy revolution. <br><br>Nuclear Energy in the 21st Century is an authoritative resource for educators, students, policy-makers and interested lay-people. This balanced and accessible text provides:<br><br>* An inroad into nuclear science for the non-specialist<br>* A valuable account of many aspects of nuclear technology, including industry applications<br>* Answers to public concerns about safety, proliferation, and waste management<br>* Up-to-date data and references <br><br>This edition comes with a Foreword by Dr. Patrick Moore, co-founder of Greenpeace, which attests to today’s worldwide re-evaluation of nuclear power.<br><br>The World Nucl
