Chernousenko's "Chernobyl" is a first-hand account of the events and facts surrounding this global disaster: The first part of the book includes an absoring account of what happened at Chernobyl nuclear power station on April 26, 1986, as well as a review of the rectification measures taken so far. The author re-analyzes the causes of the accident, confronting us with startling details about critical design faults in the (RBMK) reactors of the Chernobyl type. - The second part deals with the long-range and long-term effects of the catastrophe on man and environment, including a wealth of yet unpublished data along with proposals for future action. - Physicist Vladimir Chernousenko is eminently qualified to write on this topic: In 1986 he was appointed representative of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences in Chernobyl and the "Zone". He worked in the so-called Special Zone (10-km radius around the reactor) where he received large radiation doses. He was co-author of the internal Government Report for President Gorbachev and the Supreme Soviet. Until 1991 he was scientificdirector of the 30-km exclusion zone. - This book is a vital step towards establishing the truth about the causes of the accident and - even more important - the actual scale of its aftermath. It provides the specialist with the scientific and medical data needed for further investigation and for designing effective countermeasures, whilethe lay reader will profit most from the absorbing accounts and personal statements of eyewitnesses and other people directly affected by the catastrophe. - A unique collection of photographs adds further poignancy to the written descriptions. Appendices are added to explain the most important technical terms for the non-specialist and to provide technical details for the specialist. The book is of equal interest to natural scientists, medics and interested laypersons.

Long before the tragedy of the 2011 nuclear disasters in Japan, the nuclear reactor at Chernobyl experienced an explosion, meltdown, fire, and massive release of radioactivity. Twenty-five years later, we still know very little about the event and its aftermath. Few of the professional papers describing the aftereffects of the disaster have been translated from Russian into English or distributed in the West. This is now remedied, with the publication of this definitive volume, based on original sources, and originally published in Russian. Alla A. Yaroshinskaya describes the human side of the disaster, with firsthand accounts by those who lived through the world's worst public health crisis. Chernobyl: Crime without Punishment is a unique account of events by a reporter who defied the Soviet bureaucracy. The author presents an accurate historical record, with quotations from all the major players in the Chernobyl drama. It also provides unique insight into the final stages of Soviet communism. Yaroshinskaya describes actions after the disaster: how authorities built a new city for Chernobyl residents but placed it in a highly polluted area. She also details the actions of the nuclear lobby inside and outside the former Soviet Union. Bringing the book into the twenty-first century, the author reviews the latest medical data on Chernobyl people's health from the affected countries and from independent investigations; and states why there has been no trial of top officials who covered up Chernobyl and its disastrous consequences.

Inside Chernobyl - A Day in the Exclusion Zone The Chernobyl nuclear disaster is one of the most severe accidents in human history. The radiation released by this catastrophe caused unbelievable suffering to the population that once resided there and still has serious consequences on the environment today. Nevertheless, the exclusion zone with its ghost towns, dilapidated buildings, wild animals, and invisible radiation still exerts a certain fascination on adventurers. WE TAKE YOU ON A TOUR OF EXPLORATION In this report you will learn what we experienced on our tour in Chernobyl and how we felt. Our personal adventures are always put into historical context, so that experience and history merge together meaningfully. Numerous pictures take you with us to the most exciting places and give you the feeling of having been there yourself. WHO IS THE TRAVEL REPORT ADDRESSED AT? The travelogue is aimed primarily at: Adventurers and explorers who may plan to visit Chernobyl in the future all those who are interested in Chernobyl and who cannot imagine visiting the site themselves, but who would like to learn more about the real events in the "death zone", beyond the myths and horror stories. Friends and family who are looking for a gift for a travel enthusiast who has already visited almost every vacation destination and is now looking for a challenge, or who is often drawn to exotic places anyway. VOICES ABOUT THE BOOK: "I read through the book in one go because I couldn't stop. The travel story is insanely exciting and emotional at the same time. It touched me personally very much and I could put myself directly into the situations you experienced. It was as if I had been there with you myself."

A New York Times Best Book of the Year A Time Best Book of the Year A Kirkus Reviews Best Nonfiction Book of the Year 2020 Andrew Carnegie Medals for Excellence Winner From journalist Adam Higginbotham, the New York Times bestselling “account that reads almost like the script for a movie” (The Wall Street Journal)—a powerful investigation into Chernobyl and how propaganda, secrecy, and myth have obscured the true story of one of the history’s worst nuclear disasters. Early in the morning of April 26, 1986, Reactor Number Four of the Chernobyl Atomic Energy Station exploded, triggering one of the twentieth century’s greatest disasters. In the thirty years since then, Chernobyl has become lodged in the collective nightmares of the world: shorthand for the spectral horrors of radiation poisoning, for a dangerous technology slipping its leash, for ecological fragility, and for what can happen when a dishonest and careless state endangers its citizens and the entire world. But the real story of the accident, clouded from the beginning by secrecy, propaganda, and misinformation, has long remained in dispute. Drawing on hundreds of hours of interviews conducted over the course of more than ten years, as well as letters, unpublished memoirs, and documents from recently-declassified archives, Adam Higginbotham brings the disaster to life through the eyes of the men and women who witnessed it firsthand. The result is a “riveting, deeply reported reconstruction” (Los Angeles Times) and a definitive account of an event that changed history: a story that is more complex, more human, and more terrifying than the Soviet myth. “The most complete and compelling history yet” (The Christian Science Monitor), Higginbotham’s “superb, enthralling, and necessarily terrifying...extraordinary” (The New York Times) book is an indelible portrait of the lessons learned when mankind seeks to bend the natural world to his will—lessons which, in the face of climate change and other threats, remain not just vital but necessary.

Great towers have been destroyed! Our nuclear power plants remain vulnerable to attack. Many questions trouble the population of the world: Did the Bible predict 21st Century terrorism? Did World War III, begin September 11, 2001? Do we live in the chaotic last days described by ancient prophets? Are we sufficiently prepared? Will good prevail over evil? Are the dangers of the last days both physical and spiritual? The Bible contains alarming news. But, all the biblicalshock and aweis secondary to learning the purpose of life. Coincidences, between scripture and current events, provide clues to the catastrophic signs that will precedethe 1000 year Reign of Christ.God's teachings, Satanic opposition, terrorism, prophesies, both Bush Administrations, nuclear war and fallout, terrible disasters, the Gulf and Iraq Wars, World War III, pornography, the Abu Ghraib prison scandal, are all fitting together to complete and reveal agreat puzzle.Eternal consequences are of great importance. The scriptures counsel how to cope with latter day challenges. Commandmentscan't be ignored without suffering consequences. Procrastination is a thief!
