The Editors have pleasure in presenting a further volume in the se
ries to our international audience. Perhaps the most significant
event of the passing year has been the publication by the IAEA of
its study of the prob lem of continuing radiation protection in the
lands surrounding Chernobyl. The major international project
undertaken in 1990 and reported in 1991 is worth reading, not only
for its assessment of how radiation protection intervention should
be applied de facto in accident conditions, but equally for its
account of the modern view of the philosophy of radiation
protection. Some would, however, wish to argue that the
acknowledgement by Iraq of its three-pronged development of nuclear
weapons in conditions of secrecy and antagonism was equally
significant and indeed as much a deter minant of the future of
peaceful nuclear power as the Chernobyl accident. But it must be
clear that the developments of weapons and electricity pro duction
are not inescapably bound together; the Iraqi weapons program was
not linked to any peaceful power development.
