This review is from: Understanding Radiation Science: Basic Nuclear and Health Physics (Paperback)

This is a good book with basic concepts about Radiation physics and chemistry. I recommend it for students in the field of nuclear sciences. The text is clear. We found sme historical events an a chapter with additional definitions. No mathematical problems.
