This book discusses nuclear events that may become imminent threats
to the fabric of our society, and elucidates strategies for
preventing these threats or mitigating their adverse effects. It
addresses multidisciplinary aspects of various nuclear emergencies,
including nuclear accidents, terror attacks involving nuclear
materials, illicit trafficking of nuclear materials, and problems
related to nuclear forensics and strikes with nuclear
weapons/warheads. Very often, nuclear emergencies are only
discussed within certain, specific communities. However, this
volume brings together experts from various fields to provide a
more holistic approach to the problem. Physical, chemical,
environmental, social, and medical scientists, together with
representatives from the media and authorities, present their views
on and strategies for events that cause fear and anxiety among the
public - an aspect that can be even more threatening than the
direct health effects. The book offers a valuable guide for nuclear
scientists, such as radioecologists, health physicists,
radioanalytical scientists and nuclear engineers, as well as
decision-makers and national/international authorities.
