From the reviews:
"This introduction to health physics is meant to serve as the basis for a two-course series in the study of radiation protection. ... The book is meant for individuals wishing to study radiation protection/health physics. ... the chapters discuss advanced concepts and mathematical models that are appropriate individuals seeking an in-depth understanding of radiation protection. ... very useful as teaching text. It is clear and concise and the problems and examples further elucidate the material." (Dean W. Broga, Doody’s Review Service, August, 2008)
“The book, provides a definition for HP and a broad overview of the field. ... a comprehensive text providing an overview of all relevant topics of HP. ... the book can serve either as a reference for the practising HP or as a text for a course. ... present the most up-to-date treatment of the topics covered.” (Michael P. Grissom, Radiation Protection Dosimetry, Vol. 138 (4), 2010)This comprehensive text provides an overview of all relevant topics in the field of radiation protection (health physics). Radiation Protection and Dosimetry serves as an essential handbook for practicing health physics professionals, and is also ideal as a teaching text for courses at the university level. The book is organized to introduce the reader to basic principles of radiation decay and interactions, to review current knowledge and historical aspects of the biological effects of radiation, and to cover important operational topics such as radiation shielding and dosimetry. In addition to presenting the most up to date treatment of the topics and references to the literature, most chapters contain numerical problems with their solutions for use in teaching or self assessment. One chapter is devoted to Environmental Health Physics, which was written in collaboration with leading professionals in the area.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This text is meant to serve as the basis for a two-course series in the study of radiation protection (a. k. a. 'health physics'). The rst course would be an introduction to and fast-paced overview of the subject. For some, this is the only course in radiation protection that they will take, and thus all material must be covered in a fairly super cial and rapid fashion. The second course is a more in-depth and applied study of radiation protection, bringing in current materials from the literature, a detailed study of regulations, practice with re- world dose and shielding calculations, and perhaps application in a semest- long student project assigned by the instructor. Several chapters include an additional section of suggested readings and other resources that can be used by the instructor to build such detailed investigations in a second course of this nature. In the rst course, the chapter may be basically studied, with reference to the idea that a much richer literature base exists than can be covered in a broad overview of radiation protection. Through exploration of this literature base, and other similar materials that the instructor may be aware of that are not speci cally cited, this second, more in-depth course may be developed. A routine part of any good health physics program is a complete course in radiation detection and measurement. My brief overview chapter here cannot provide the depth needed for this subject.
