O ovoj e-knjizi

""The Atomic Age"" explores the complex history, science, and impact of nuclear power, examining its evolution from theoretical physics to a technology that simultaneously promises clean energy and threatens global destruction.
The book delves into the Manhattan Project's origins, the subsequent Cold War arms race, and the development of nuclear power plants, revealing how science, history, and ethical considerations are intertwined in the nuclear narrative.
One intriguing fact is the dual-use nature of nuclear technology, offering both benefits and risks, while another is its profound effect on geopolitical strategies and environmental science.
The book progresses through three major sections, starting by explaining the basic physics of fission, fusion, and radioactivity, ensuring accessibility for non-scientists.
It then traces the historical development of the atomic age, from the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to the present day.
Finally, it examines contemporary challenges like nuclear waste disposal and reactor safety, while also exploring opportunities such as fusion energy.
By connecting scientific advancements with their historical and societal consequences, ""The Atomic Age"" provides a holistic perspective on nuclear technology suitable for students, researchers, and policymakers.
