The American public's introduction to nuclear technology was
manifested in destruction and death. With Hiroshima and the Cold
War still ringing in our ears, our perception of all things nuclear
is seen through the lens of weapons development. Nuclear power is
full of mind-bending theories, deep secrets, and the misdirection
of public consciousness, some deliberate, some accidental. The
result of this fixation on bombs and fallout is that the
development of a non-polluting, renewable energy source stands
frozen in time. Outlining nuclear energy's discovery and
applications throughout history, Mahaffey's brilliant and
accessible book is essential to understanding the astounding
phenomenon of nuclear power in an age where renewable energy and
climate change have become the defining concerns of the
twenty-first century.
