description: Nuclear engineer Heaberlin argues that much of what has been presented to the public about nuclear power has been distorted by people politically pre-disposed to be against it. Writing for a general audience, he takes the reader through an explanation of the basic science of nuclear power operations. He then seeks to assuage worries about the dangers of nuclear accidents and problems of nuclear waste and offers arguments for why nuclear power should be widely adopted to meet society's energy needs.
