A Solid and Informative Account of a Terrible Disaster
An informative account of the events leading up to the explosion at Chernobyl, including the context in which the tragedy occurred - the political system which those in power manipulated to keep themselves in power - and the pressures on ordinary folk trying to survive the demands of the Communist Party. The culture of the USSR encouraged waste, drunkeness and slipshod work, a lethal combination in the nuclear industry, yet many of the workers were far more responsible than in other industries and were badly let down by those set over them. The book also explains how such a reactor was meant to work, its fatal flaws which were covered up by the authorities, and the different types of nuclear radiation and their effects on people. It also brings the story up to date with the recent ... An informative account of the events leading up to the explosion at Chernobyl, including the context in which the tragedy occurred - the political system which those in power manipulated to keep themselves in power - and the pressures on ordinary folk trying to survive the demands of the Communist Party. The culture of the USSR encouraged waste, drunkeness and slipshod work, a lethal combination in the nuclear industry, yet many of the workers were far more responsible than in other industries and were badly let down by those set over them. The book also explains how such a reactor was meant to work, its fatal flaws which were covered up by the authorities, and the different types of nuclear radiation and their effects on people. It also brings the story up to date with the recent developments affecting the site and the new containment building required due to the inadequacies of the original - which had to be constructed under extremely dangerous conditions and despite the usual unreasonable demands of the USSR authorities. So this is a very informative read for anyone interested in the subject.

Fascinating and well worth the read
It was a really good read and quite fascinating to be able to understand why it was such a huge disaster. There were a lot of Russian names/places which, at times, made it really hard to handle! However, if you are prepared to take your time with the progress then it is well worth the effort!
