About this audiobook
Nuclear energy provokes strong reactions—fear, enthusiasm, or dismissal—but rarely clear understanding. This volume explains how nuclear power actually works, from the physics of fission to the engineering of reactors to the realities of waste and risk. Not advocacy for or against, but the knowledge necessary to think about nuclear energy clearly.
