Since the best-selling first edition was published, there have been many advances in the field of nuclear science. In medicine, distance-based accelerators and electron beam therapy has become the standard. Stimulate significant progress in the new national security needs in nuclear instrumentation.An ideal introduction to the basic principles of nuclear science and engineering, this book presents the basic nuclear science needed to understand and quantify a wide range of nuclear phenomena.
New second edition

The Douglas McGregor chapter radiation detection
The latest coverage of radiation hazards, reactor design, and medical applications,
Flexible organization of the material, can Quick Reference
This version in particle accelerators, nuclear fusion reactor, as well as nuclear technology in medical diagnosis and treatment, and also requires an in-depth understanding. In addition, the authors discuss the application, such as nuclear power direct conversion into electricity. The breadth of coverage is unprecedented, from the theory and design characteristics of a nuclear reactor biological risk identification and ionizing radiation. Supplemented with extensive nuclear data editing all content to a large number of calculations.

Physicist or engineer provide extensive coverage of all types of physics, nuclear science, nuclear technology, the latest second version of the basic nuclear science and engineering is an important reference.
