Project Gutenberg 2015-01-21 Public domain in the USA. 195 Hines, Neal O. 66061322 Atoms, Nature, and Man: Man-made Radioactivity in the Environment Produced by Stephen Hutcheson, Dave Morgan, Carol Spears and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Atoms, Nature, and Man: Man-made Radioactivity in the Environment" by Neal O. Hines is a scientific publication written during the mid-20th century, specifically in the 1960s. The book addresses the intricacies of nuclear energy and its consequential effects on the environment, focusing on how man-made radioactivity interacts with biological systems and ecological environments. It emphasizes the need for a deeper understanding of radiobiology in the context of atomic experimentation and environmental studies. In this comprehensive work, Hines examines various facets of man-made radioactivity, from its introduction into ecosystems through nuclear tests to its long-term effects on biological communities. The book recounts the history of nuclear testing, particularly at locations like Bikini Atoll, and details the resulting environmental studies that track the movement and concentration of radionuclides in various ecosystems. Through scientific observations, Hines explores complex interactions among organisms, emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary approaches to assess the environmental impacts of radioactivity, while also calling attention to the necessity of responsible management of nuclear resources for future generations.
