New Book, "Deadly Glow"

[Dave Derenzo <dave@uic.edu>]

Dear Radsafe Readers,

I would like to make all of you aware of a new book published by a 
colleague of mine at here at the University of Illinois at Chicago.  The 
title is "Deadly Glow - The Radium Dial Worker Tragedy" written by Ross 
Mullner.  This is not a technical book, but tells the human side of the 
dial painters' story and contains a lot of really nice historical 
photographs and drawings.  Ross spent a lot of time at Argonne and other 
places around the country researching this book.  I encourage all of you to 
pick up a copy, this information would be hard to come by otherwise.  The 
book is newly published by the American Public Health Association, ISBN 
0-87553-245-4, Library of Congress Number 99-073688.  I don't know the 
price, but it is a paperback and runs 175 pages.

My apologies to anyone who thinks this is an advertisement, that is not my 
intention.

Sincerely,
Dave Derenzo
Associate Director for Radiation Safety
Radiation Safety Officer
University of Illinois at Chicago
