Experts agree, though it is already important, nuclear power will
soon be critical to the maintenance of contemporary society. With
the heightened importance of nuclear energy comes a heightened
threat of terrorism. The possibility of nuclear energy
infrastructure terrorism-that is, the use of weapons to cause
damage to the nuclear energy industrial sector, which would have
widespread, devastating effects-is very real. In Nuclear
Infrastructure Protection and Homeland Security, authors Frank R.
Spellman and Melissa L. Stoudt present all the information needed
for nuclear infrastructure employers and employees to handle
security threats they must be prepared to meet. The book focuses on
three interrelated nuclear energy infrastructure segments: nuclear
reactors, radioactive materials, and nuclear waste. It presents
common-sense methodologies in a straightforward manner, so the text
is accessible even to those with little experience with nuclear
energy who are nonetheless concerned about the protection of our
nuclear infrastructure. Important safety and security principles
are outlined, along with security measures that can be implemented
to ensure the safety of nuclear facilities.
