CHOSEN AS A BOOK OF THE YEAR BY SUNDAY TIMES AND HISTORY TODAY 'Absolutely stunning. . . a formidable achievement. A six-part historical thriller that is essential reading for both our politicians and the ordinary citizen' Kai Bird Best-selling historian Serhii Plokhy returns with an illuminating exploration of the atomic age through the history of six nuclear disasters In 2011, a 43-foot-high tsunami crashed into a nuclear power plant in Fukushima, Japan. In the following days, explosions would rip buildings apart, three reactors would go into nuclear meltdown, and the surrounding area would be swamped in radioactive water. It is now considered one of the costliest nuclear disasters ever. But Fukushima was not the first, and it was not the worst. . . In Atoms and Ashes, acclaimed historian Serhii Plokhy tells the tale of the six nuclear disasters that shook the world: Bikini Atoll, Kyshtym, Windscale, Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima. Based on wide-ranging research and witness testimony, Plokhy traces the arc of each crisis, exploring in depth the confused decision-making on the ground and the panicked responses of governments to contain the crises and often cover up the scale of the catastrophe. As the world increasingly looks to renewable and alternative sources of energy, Plokhy lucidly argues that the atomic risk must be understood in explicit terms, but also that these calamities reveal a fundamental truth about our relationship with nuclear technology: that the thirst for power and energy has always trumped safety and the cost for future generations.

After the Ashes is more than a typical survival hand guide. Because of the realization that atomic warfare is likely inevitable, it seeks to both inform the reader of why this is the case, and beyond merely lists of survival materials, attempts to enumerate reasonable ways in which mankind can, as it must, recover after such an event. Most materials written on this subject do little other than to teach survival methods themselves, and thus miss one important point; while they may help a person survive, they will not help mankind to truly recover from what would be the most trying period in all of humanity's history. From shortwave suggestions to suggestions regarding cleanup and restoring order, this guide seeks to add to the scope of literature on the subject from a new perspective, so that hopefully, should such a war occur, and should mankind find himself in the post-atomic era, he will be capable of not merely continuing to exist, but building something better so that such a thing will never happen again. A copy of the Bill of Rights is included within the work as well for handy reference, as after any such exchange such a document is invaluable.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Ionizing radiation, the emission or transmission of energy, comes in a variety of forms. The radiation produced by nuclear explosions and accidents carries enough energy to detach electrons from atoms and molecules. #2 The statue of Prometheus, a Greek Titan who stole fire from the gods and gave it to humankind, was erected in the city of Prypiat a few years before the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986. It now stands before the entrance to the office of the Chernobyl nuclear power station. #3 The main economic argument against nuclear energy is the cost of building a nuclear power plant. It now costs at least $112 per megawatt to build a nuclear plant, compared to $46 per megawatt for solar, $42 per megawatt for gas, and $30 per megawatt for wind. #4 The history of the nuclear industry is full of accidents that have caused public concern about the safety of nuclear reactors. The three major accidents that have rocked the civil nuclear sector are the Three Mile Island accident of 1979, the Chernobyl disaster of 1986, and the Fukushima multiple reactor meltdown of 2011.
