5 out of 5 stars EXTREMELY POWERFUL !!!!   January 10, 2002

This book is an incredible testimonial of an accident that I seemed to have forgotten about. It put it right back in my face. The combination of the photographs and essays leaves no doubt about how dangerous nuclear power is, how little we know about, what happened in 1986 and what the REAL consequences of a nuclear accident are. NOW.

Something to think about ... Especially in times like this.

This is a BOOK TO READ, LOOK AT AND DISCUSS ABOUT. A definite keeper. Grat photography.
