Synopsis

This book calls into question building additional nuclear weapons and nuclear power plants given the attendant health problems, mainly childhood leukemia, thyroid cancer, breast and testicular cancer. Our inquiry is based on our continuing involvement in the peace and social justice movements and researching oil, chemical, and nuclear disasters. New findings support the social power theories of C. Wright Mills, Michel Foucault, and Jurgen Habermas. Data analyzed in our book are based on the experiences of ordinary people attempting to deal with nuclear secrecy and deception.
