Inhaltsangabe

A nonpartisan analysis of America's nuclear industry-how it was implemented, why it has been so unsuccessful, and what lessons it can teach us for future energy policymaking. Joseph Morone and Edward Woodhouse argue that a radically altered form of nuclear power could provide a more acceptable and less environmentally destructive energy future-if we learn from the failures of the first nuclear era.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Nuclear power once stood for a bright and exciting future, a tangible symbol of hope and optimism in the postwar era.

In scale, expense, technical challenge, and organizational complexity, it was comparable to the Apollo space program. But the outcome could not have been more different.
