Inhaltsangabe

A timely and groundbreaking account of the disturbing landscape of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear meltdown amidst an earthquake and tsunami on Japan's NE coastline. In providing riveting insights into its background and the disaster management options taken and the political, technical and social reactions as the accident unfolded, the book critically reflects on both the implications for managing future nuclear disasters and the future of nuclear power itself.
