     On my screen, the sender of this message did not leave an e-mail 
     address, so at the risk of making someone mad, because I used RADSAFE 
     for something I could have sent directly,
     
     Have you considered
     
     1.  Military Radiobiology - edited by Conklin, J.J. and Walker, R.I, 
     Academic Press, copyright 1987; and
     
     2.  Radiation Hormesis, Luckey, T.D., CRC Press, copyright 1991.
     
     The two should compliment each other.

I will be teaching a radiation biology course to Masters candidates in a 
School of Public Health (mostly industrial hygienist oriented).  I 
would appreciate suggestions for a textbook.  I have used Alpen, 
Radiation Biophysics, and Mettler and Hendee, Medical Effects of 
Ionizing Radiation, in the past.  I find the latter too much of a 
catalog of studied effects rather than a text and the former may be
too biophysical for this group who do not claim to be health physicists 
or physicists.
     
Any suggestions are welcome.
