Description

Despite its poor "press", radiation has many beneficial uses in human health and welfare such as generation of electrical power, treatment of cancer, accurate diagnosis of disease, preservation of foods and numerous industrial applications. This book is devoted to radiobiological concepts which are likely to add new dimensions in improved management of human malignancies.
