Opis

Sellafield is a dangerous and dirty nuclear facility. Irish people feared it even before the attacks on New York and Washington on 11 September 2001. Now, as terrorist strikes on nuclear power plants become a real possibility, the government of Ireland is taking international legal action to have Sellafield closed down.

Recenzje

"...Much of the data summarized in this book is not readily available elsewhere. This is a welcome addition for anyone interested in electrophysiology, epilepsy, and the therapeutic effects of electrical impulses."
