Chernobyl: Consequences of the Catastrophe for People and the Environment

Both the Japanese gov't as well as our own gov't here in the US would love to have its citizens believe that the Fukushima nuclear disaster is controlled, and of no long term health consequence.
SilverDoctors has found an independent Russian study recently translated into English examining the long term consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster on both people and the environment.
Perhaps this would make a nice gift for your local congressman/ senator, who continue to reply nonchalantly to your concerns about nuclear radiation risks here in the US.


This is a collection of papers translated from the Russian with some revised and updated contributions. Written by leading authorities from Eastern Europe, the volume outlines the history of the health and environmental consequences of the Chernobyl disaster. According to the authors, official discussions from the International Atomic Energy Agency and associated United Nations' agencies (e.g. the Chernobyl Forum reports) have largely downplayed or ignored many of the findings reported in the Eastern European scientific literature and consequently have erred by not including these assessments.
