If a new book calledPower to Save the Worldis half as good as thisWall Street Journalreview says it is, expect that list to get much, much longer." -New York TimesFreakonomics blogby Stephen J.

Synopsis
An informed look at the myths and fears surrounding nuclear energy, and a practical, politically realistic solution to global warming and our energy needs. Faced by the world's oil shortages and curious about alternative energy sources, Gwyneth Cravens skeptically sets out to find the truth about nuclear energy. Her conclusion: it is a totally viable and practical solution to global warming. In the end, we see that if we are to care for subsequent generations, embracing nuclear energy is an ethical imperative.
