This 1958 book sets out the elementary precautions to be taken by
anyone handling radioactive isotopes in laboratories. The
introductory sections explain the types of radiation encountered,
and enumerate the possible dangers from external sources,
accidental ingestion and contamination of the body. The safety
techniques for various laboratory experiments and the proper
methods of disposal of radioactive waste are described in some
detail. A final section on laboratory administration is followed by
a convenient summary of 'dos' and do nots' for safe working. The
appendices include a classified table of isotopes and their
toxicity, diagrams of protective equipment, and details of the
shielding necessary for emissions of given energy. Dr Boursnell
confines his discussion to the common essentials of all laboratory
techniques; his book will be of value to anyone with an interest in
the active materials.
