This newly revised and updated edition of Radiation Biophysics
provides an in-depth description of the physics and chemistry of
radiation and its effects on biological systems. Coverage begins
with fundamental concepts of the physics of radiation and
radioactivity, then progresses through the chemistry and biology of
the interaction of radiation with living systems. The Second
Edition of this highly praised text includes major revisions which
reflect the rapid advances in the field. New material covers recent
developments in the fields of carcinogenesis, DNA repair, molecular
genetics, and the molecular biology of oncogenes and tumor
suppressor genes. The book also includes extensive discussion of
the practical impact of radiation on everyday life.
