L. Arnold (Author)
In 1957 one of the two reactors built at Windscale was destroyed by fire, in the world’s first major nuclear accident. This book describes the fire and what followed, and considers its causes, effects and political importance. It throws a revealing new light on an important event of fifty years ago and on questions of secrecy and responsibility.
