This book highlights the multiple ways of telling stories of
radiation exposure; they include stories about Japan, Australia,
the United States, the Canadian Arctic, and more, and they probe
the framing of major incidents such as Three Mile Island,
Chernobyl, and Fukushima. All the chapters in this book are written
by authors who participated in our work at Oregon State University
and have benefited from hearing not only from scientists but also
from those whose lives were directly affected by the history of
radiation exposure. The question 'What is at stake when researching
and narrating the histories of radiation exposure?' is discussed,
but the book does not reinforce existing frameworks, such as legal
decisions or government policies, but rather highlights what
narrative framings accomplish and commit by scrutinizing them with
rigorous research, varied approaches, and, above all, listening to
those whose lives were most affected by exposure. Previously
