O knihe

"Nuking the World", the international edition of "Ecological Sustainability and
the Nuclear Power Story", was first written as a series of letter to the Australian
people. It provides concerned global citizens with responsible, illuminating information
to unequivocally end the debate about energy alternatives for Planet Earth. Dr Atkinson's
ideas and optimism soundly plant a new era of nation-state sovereignty, from glob-illization
to glob-all-ization, and shares information that boldly leads us forward into a
millennium of replenishment and prosperity.

In the first letter, the scientific and socio-political rationalizations used to stymie nuclear power and desalination development are examined and debunked. Th e second letter includes a careful examination of the oldest story known to humanity and, here, Dr Atkinson provides further, satisfying, metaphorical insights resulting in the idea of humanity committing to replanting the forests of the world to arrest and halt "climate change". Several new conceptual aids are introduced to assist us to accomplish this massive task, including the "quintupple bottom line"; the idea of "a tithe for the natural world",
and the "Commoner Principle".

Included in this edition is Dr Atkinson's previously unpublished, fourth letter, which exposes the monumental duping experienced by Australians in relation to their uranium resource management; a story that could even surpass the Trojan Horse legend for the prevailing depth of cunning and deceit by passive invaders and the ineptness of local governors. The book's scientific content has been peer-reviewed by members of the nuclear science community and, in Australia, it has received, without exception, excellent reviews.
