Sinossi

Safe Radiation Limits explores the complex issue of radiation exposure and the effectiveness of current safety guidelines in safeguarding public health. It examines whether existing "safe" radiation levels adequately protect everyone, particularly vulnerable populations, from long-term, low-dose exposures. One intriguing aspect discussed is how radiation interacts with living tissue, potentially leading to both immediate and long-term health issues, including cancer. The book also highlights the historical development of radiation safety standards, shaped by scientific discoveries, regulatory decisions, and ethical considerations.

 
The book uniquely analyzes radiation safety by exploring the science behind radiation's biological effects, tracing the evolution of safety standards, and examining real-world applications across medicine, industry, and environmental regulation. It critically assesses existing risk assessment models and proposes alternative approaches. Beginning with the basic principles of radiation physics and biology, it then delves into specific areas of concern, such as medical imaging risks, occupational exposure in nuclear industries, and the consequences of nuclear accidents, ultimately proposing a framework for a more comprehensive approach to radiation safety.

 
Safe Radiation Limits emphasizes the need for ongoing research, public education, and proactive risk management. It aims to stimulate a more informed discussion about radiation risks, considering topics like the linear no-threshold (LNT) model of cancer risk and the safety standards for children and pregnant women. The book will be invaluable to public health professionals, environmental scientists, policymakers, and anyone wanting a deeper understanding of radiation exposure.

    The Story of Books

    Rawlings follows the development of printing from the origins of writing to modern printing. Some of the earliest records are ancient Egyptian, Greek and Roman recordings on papyrus and wax tablets. However, Rawlings acknowledges the sparse nature of this first fragile evidence, and limits speculation. 
     
    Later, libraries of religious books grew in Europe, where monks copied individual books in monasteries. The "block printing" technique began with illustrations carved in wood blocks, while the text needed to be written by hand. Eventually, entire pages were printed as combinations of illustrations with text. The Biblia Pauperum, or “Bible of the Poor,” demonstrates this first time saving method. 
     
    Later chapters focus on printing developing as an industry, especially after the invention of movable type. Two inventors are contested as the first inventor, Johann Gutenberg of Mentz in Germany, and Laurenz Coster of Haarlem in Holland. Rawlings describes the evidence for each side, along with stories and legends that grow around their names. 
     
    Since many of the medieval books were meant to be admired as art by the illiterate majority and read only by an educated minority, copiers spent much time decorating manuscripts. Also, these highly decorated volumes needed to be protected. Here, Rawlings describes the techniques for binding and beautifying books. Arriving closer to the present day, Rawlings describes a few modern printing techniques that bring mass produced and cheap books to the now literate public. (Summary by LivelyHive)
