Review: The goal of Scott Heaberlin is to explain nuclear energy and set it in its wider context. First, he makes a case for technology in general, and its importance to human life. He goes on to explain nuclear energy and how nuclear reactors work. He addresses the negative views of nuclear power and puts the scares into context. Alternatives to nuclear power are also discussed, as nuclear power alone will not provide enough energy. Heaberlin then gives an overview of nuclear power today, what future nuclear energy options might entail. Finally, the he explains ‘what this means to you and what can you do’.
