Nuclear Decommissioning, 13 Oct 2004
The book, as is the University of Birmingham Postgraduate course on which it is based, is unique in bringing together material over the whole range of waste management, decommissioning and site remediation. It is essential reading for postgraduate students in this area, regulators, environmentalists and government agencies. It provides a basic understanding of the key principles, methodologies and current best practice. This well presented book contains 25 chapters under 5 broad headings: Fundamentals, Decommissioning, Project and program management, Waste management, and Site environmental remediation. There are numerous tables, figures and illustrations. Highly recommended. I have 2 copies for home and work!

nuclear energy explained, 23 Jan 2006
A short intro is followed by three main parts the first is about policy and history of nuclear power its triumphs and failures and this I found the most interesting part of the book.
The second part of the book documents the many forms of reactor both available now and proposed designs for the future. It is quite technical to about 'A' level physics in difficulty or slightly below and is a little overwhelming in the number of types of fuel and cooling processes given.
The third part of the book is relatively short and talks about nuclear fusion both the current research and future possibilities of it. On the whole a good up to date breakdown of nuclear power and the options it gives.

Current appraisal of nuclear policy and options, 23 Jan 2006
The book has a brief informative introduction then is split into three main parts the first of which focuses on policy issues. This part of the book I found most interesting as it talks of the history of nuclear power both its successes and failures and the current political climate both in the UK and the world. This part of the book is straight forward and not too physics based.
This is then followed by part two 'nuclear fission technologies' which is the main part of the book and I was suprised at the array of options on offer for future build . Here the book does get quite technical though no more so than 'A' level physics in difficulty.
Finally there is a relatively short chapter on nuclear fusion both current research and future predictions .
Overall I found the book very informative though the sheer number of different uses of fuels and cooling processes did get a bit overwhelming . Spot on if you need to know more especially in the current climate regarding new build.
