Inhaltsangabe

The author is associated with the Atomic Energy Research Institute, Kinki University, Japan. He presents data from the Three Mile Island and Chernobyl accidents and Japanese atomic bomb survivors, and he reviews the new model of radiation carcinogenesis based on the latest information about tumor-associated genes. On the basis of this information, he concludes that the risk to human health associated with low-level radiation exposure has been grossly overstated and that, in fact, low-level exposure has some beneficial effects.
