The "Focus on Resources" series aims to give the young reader an up-to-date survey of the world's most important natural resources. Each book describes where a commodity is found, how it is processed and how we use it. The series is designed to provide background reading for GCSE studies. This book looks at radioactive materials, from the history of their discovery to their use in medicine, nuclear weapons and atomic energy. It points out the many benefits derived from radioactive materials, as well as looking at the dangers of nuclear waste and accidents. Mark Lambert has also written "Focus on Oil", "Focus on Paper", "Focus on Plastics", "Focus on Iron and Steel" and "Focus on Electricity" in this series.
