Windscale 1957

Anatomy of a Nuclear Accident

by

"In 1957 one of the two reactors built at Windscale, in Cumbria, England, to produce plutonium for bombs was destroyed by fire, in the world's first major nuclear accident. This book - using official papers, scientific reports and much first-hand evidence - tells of those who designed, built and operated the reactors. It describes the fire of fifty years ago, and what followed, and considers its causes, effects and enduring political significance."--Jacket.
