Murray (emeritus, nuclear engineering, North Carolina State U.) uses non-technical language to describe the scientific issues surrounding the handling and hazards of nuclear waste. Chapters cover such topics as the biological effects of radiation, storage and reprocessing of fuels, transportation of waste, treatment of low-level waste, disposal of various kinds of waste, and laws and regulation. Given Murray's history with the Manhattan project, with the design of the first nuclear reactor, and as the executive editor of the Journal of Nuclear Energy , the generally reassuring tone is unsurprising.
