"Fundamentals of Radiation and Chemical Safety covers the effects and mechanisms involved
in radiation and chemical exposure on humans. The mechanisms and effects of these
damaging factors have many aspects in common, as do their research methodology and
the methods used for data processing. In many cases of these types of exposures the
same final effect can also be noted: Cancer. Low doses of radiation and small doses
of chemical exposure are continuously active and they could influence the entire population.
The analysis of these two main source hazards on the lives of the human population.
The analysis of these two main source hazards on the lives of the human population
is covered here for the first time in a single volume determining and demonstrating
their common basis. Fundamentals of Radiation and Chemical Safety includes the necessary
knowledge from nuclear physics, chemistry and biology, as well the methods of processing
the experimental results. Intended for students, graduate students and professionals
in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, ecology, and a range of interdisciplinary
sciences. The book can also be used by practitioners as a reference in order to find
more detailed information on special issues of radiation and chemical safety. This
title focuses on the effects of low radiation dosage and chemical hormesis as well
as the hazards associated with, and safety precautions in radiation and chemicals,
rather that the more commonly noted safety issues high level emergencies and disasters
of this type."
