Bo Lindell\u2019s History of Radiation, Radioactivity, and Radiological Protection<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All fourth volumes are available for free in English!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bo Lindell’s authoritative four-book series, The History of Radiation, Radioactivity, and Radiological Protection<\/em>, resting on his first-hand experience and scientific accuracy and spiced with his vivid sense of humour, has been translated into English thanks to significant efforts by the NSFS, and generous additional funding by the Nordic Nuclear Safety Research (NKS); the five Nordic regulatory authorities; and the International Radiation Protection Association (IRPA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fourth and final book in the series, The Toil of Sisyphus, <\/em>was published in June 2020. This fascinating and entertaining book is based on Lindell\u2019s own central role in the international development of radiological protection. While the title alludes to the efforts of the nuclear power industry to gain public acceptance, the book covers all aspects of radiation and protection problems. Being a first-hand account, this book is formatted as chronological diary notes rather than the topical orientation of the earlier volumes. Studded with funny and sometimes dramatic anecdotes, it is very easy to read yet full of important information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can obtain the four books in two ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
