Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book seeks to further our understanding of the fallout from nuclear war, specifically the properties of fallout, how it interacts with our environment, and the risks it poses to human health and recovery. The author brings together leading researchers to review and synthesize the latest research on the subject, providing a comprehensive assessment of current scientific understanding. While the consequences of nuclear war are dire and far-reaching, this book offers a grounding in the science of fallout, using clear language accessible to experts and the interested public This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Page iii/iv has become separated and has been reglued back in place. Front board weak at that location. Ex-library with the usual library markings. AEC Symposium Series No. 24. Among the sessions held were: The Hazard--Properties of Fallout, Fallout-Radiation Effects on Livestock; Fallout-Radiation Effects on Plants, Effects of Fallout Radiation on Agricultural and Natural Communities, and Considerations in Agricultural Defense Planning. In Appendix A, there are reports on 7 Committee Working Groups. Appendix B addressed Radiation Effects on Farm Animals and Crops. There is a list of Attendees and both Author and Subject indexes. The Preface states: Results of ongoing research and study reported in these symposium proceedings should significantly improve the ability to forecast and assess the postattack availability and safety of food should a nuclear attack on this country occur. This improvement could not have occured, of course, without an accompanying expansion in knowledge of the basic scientific phenomena involved. The consensus of the symposium was that, after such an attack, crippling problems of food, health, ecology, and long-term effects on man were unlikely. Excerpt from Survival of Food Crops and Livestock in the Event of Nuclear War: Proceedings of a Symposium Held at Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, Long Island, New York, Sept. 15-18, 1970. Since its inception, the Brookhaven National Laboratory has had a deep and active interest in the effects of radiation, including radiation from fallout. As examples of this interest, we can list the East River Project, carried out in large part by the laboratory many years ago; the initial and continuing care of the Marshallese who were accidentally exposed to large doses of fallout radiation in 1954; and the extensive studies at Brookhaven on the effects of radiation on animals and plants. The particular interest at this symposium is radiation effects resulting from high-dose exposure, rather than the effects of low-level exposure doses and dose rates commensurate with the radiation - exposure guides for radiation workers and for the public). These studies, of course, have a strong pragmatic component, in that the objective is to develop the ability to predict the potential effects of large doses of radiation on man directly and indirectly via possible detrimental effects on animals and food crops and via isotopes in the food chain. We must be able to evaluate the relative importance of these and other factors in the overall damage situation following nuclear warfare.
