内容説明

This is a sourcebook on the incidence, effects and control of indoor radon. Radon decay products are now understood to constitute the largest source of radiation exposure. The risk of lung cancer associated with exposure to the average indoor concentration of radon is much higher than that considered acceptable for environmental pollutants. Clearly, radon represents one of the most critical issues in environmental health today. This book provides a technically rigorous account of the occurrence of indoor radon, the nature and behaviour of its decay products, health effects, and techniques and strategies for minimizing exposure to radon.
