Reframing Nuclear Power: A Comical Acquittal of the Wrongfully Accused

By M.S. Hoffmann

An unmistakably ambitious and fresh new take on nuclear power. Set against the backdrop of the climate change crisis, Reframing Nuclear Power argues nuclear power is the only viable emissions-free energy source of the future. Juxtaposing satire and realism, humor and sobriety, visual and written modalities, M.S. Hoffmann skillfully guides readers through the complex technological, economic, and political landscapes of the energy transition and role nuclear power ought to play therein. With the help of over 80 original comics and cartoons, Hoffmann personifies nuclear power as a tragic hero named "Nick Lear" who is accused of being unnecessary, unsafe, and unaffordable. From energy density to nuclear terrorism, Chernobyl to game theory, Hoffmann leaves few stones left unturned. The unforgettable trial of Nick Lear has no shortage of surprises, not least the jury's final verdict!
