Dr. Auxier got his Ph.D. in nuclear engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology, he holds tenure at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee, and he worked at the University of Texas where he was appointed chairman of the department of physics and engineering of the radiobiological laboratory. Dr. Auixer was involved with the Atomic Bomb Causality Commission to see the effects that radiation and distance have on people and things near the place a bomb was dropped. Immediately after the cessation of fighting in Japan in World War II, studies began which were aimed at learning as much as possible about radiation effects on the survivors of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings. The most important factors were the immediate and long-term effects of the varying doses of radiation to the survivors. Although the medical studies commenced within months of the bombings, it was ten years before technology reached the stage at which it appeared possible to determine with any real reliability the effect the radiation doses had on these people. The U.S. Atomic Energy Commission and subsequently the Energy Research and Development Administration supported medical and dosimetry studies of the survivors. In 1975 the United States and Japan joined as full partners to carry on the studies far into the future. The dosimetry portion of these studies is recorded in this monograph. In this review the author presents a mixture of historical highlights and scientific information. The objective is to give the reader some insight and understanding into the overall program and to identify the original publications for those seeking an in-depth analysis.
