Nuclear Energy Complete Series

Product Description

Nuclear power produces almost a fifth of the world’s electricity. Supporters say it’s safe, cheap and – best of all – the answer to global warming. Critics say it’s not safe, or cheap. And it won’t really help with the global warming problem.
So who’s right?

Nuclear Energy: The Issues presents the arguments for and against, with relevant background information.

The science behind nuclear power – what nuclear fission is, how a nuclear power station works and the ‘nuclear fuel cycle’ – is explained in more detail in Nuclear Energy: The Science.
