The Nuclear Imperative: A Critical Look at the Approaching Energy Crisis (Topics in Safety, Risk, Reliability and Quality)
Part of this book was originally written in 1976 when some thirty copies were printed and distributed to interested parties. A wider distribution was planned but never carried out.
