Re Good books,

An excellent source of information on radioactivity in the environment is:



Eisenbud, Merril and Gesell, Thomas, 1997, Environmental Radioactivity from

Natural, Industrial, and Military Sources, Fourth Edition: Academic Press,

656 p.

Hi Everyone



I was wondering if anyone here could reccomend any good books that cover the

effect radioactive materials have on the environment. I have to write a

research paper for my biology class (about human impact on the environment)

and chose to discuss radioactive materials being that Im highly fascinated

by them. I wish to portray radioactives in the best possible light - in

other words I dont want to use some anti-nuclear greenpeace propaganda or

something similar as a source. If someone could direct me something that is

of decent or better acedemic quality (more info less propaganda), I would be

very grateful.



Thanks!
