The eighth edition of this highly readable book continues to cover the technical principles underlying the control of radiation hazards, radiation detection and measurement and the biological effects of radiation, followed by a consideration of radiation protection issues in the nuclear, non-nuclear and medical fields. Further specialized topics include safety and risk assessment, waste management and decommissioning of nuclear and radiation facilities, radiological emergencies and relevant legislation and organizational issues.

Key Features

  • Essential reading - introduces all aspects of radiation protection in a single book
  • Accessible and concise - highly structured text supplemented by clear diagrams and photographs, summary sections and revision questions, suitable for the beginner and more advanced radiation practitioner
  • Up to date - convenient 'one stop shop', reflecting current national and international recommendations and requirements
  • New to this edition - radiation protection in space exploration and travel
