Great for Research Papers

The book starts with an explanation of what energy is. It is basically a review. The book then goes on to describe the history of nuclear energy. After explaining how nuclear energy works, the book tells you the downsides to nuclear power (e.g. nuclear waste, nuclear accidents). The book concludes with a look at the future of nuclear power. At the back of the book there is a useful appendix and glossary. This is a very useful book if you are doing a research paper.
