Description

Originally published in 1986, this Routledge Library Edition explores the complex relationship between nuclear power and public safety. As nuclear energy becomes a central topic for twenty-first century survival, the debate surrounding the safety of power stations and their locations continues to grow. In this independent critique, author Stan Openshaw uses findings from four years of dedicated research to examine the vital question of where reactors should be placed. The text provides a deep look into how reactor siting can offer additional, design-independent margins of safety for these facilities. By comparing reactor siting policies in both the UK and the USA, the book highlights specific areas where practices may need to be updated. This work is an essential resource for those studying the sociology and policy of energy resources, offering a detailed perspective on how site selection impacts the safety landscape of the nuclear industry.
