The LNT Report

“With enough facts and juicy historical details to satisfy most of us, The LNT Report reads like a detective story, sprinkled with (nerdy) humor here and there. Layer by layer, it uncovers the BS (Bad Science) behind much of our nuclear fear.”—RAULI PARTANEN, author of The Age of Energy and Climate Gamble  “This exposé, with wit and clarity, debunks the nonsense that has prevented deployment of our safest energy source with the smallest environmental footprint—modern nuclear power. For the sake of young people, this story must bespread widely.”—PROFESSOR JAMES HANSEN, Earth Institute, Columbia University  “The author has dug out the story, something that the EPA and the scientific community have failed to do . . . One can only hope that The LNT Report will be read by all students from high school on, in this country and around the world.”—PROFESSOR EDWARD J. CALABRESE, University of Massachusetts Amherst  ""Conley provides a blow-by-blow account of how bad science and outright fraud became the basis of our regulations on radiation safety.”—JOSHUA GOLDSTEIN, author of A Bright Future and co-writer of Oliver Stone’s famous documentary movie, Nuclear Now  “Public attitudes on the risks of nuclear energy are dominated by mythical thinking, not scientific evidence. This history of scientific work on the effects of radiation deserves a wide audience and careful consideration.”—SPENCER WEART, author of The Rise of Nuclear Fear  “Ed Calabrese is a brilliant scientific detective, and Mike Conley is a brilliant scientific explainer. No ifs or buts, if you have any rational faculty whatsoever, this book will absolutely convince you. The dangers of nuclear energy have been outrageously exaggerated!”—DR. RAY SCOTT PERCIVAL, creator of Enlightenment Defended, author of The Myth of the Closed Mind  “Fear of Nuclear Energy is far more dangerous than nuclear energy itself.”—ROBERT BRYCE, author of A Question of Power  “If you ask, Does LNT make sense?, Conley’s step by step historical narrative with citations, for better or for worse, explains it all.”—RAY ROTHROCK, nuclear engineer, venture capitalist, philanthropist
