Title: Laser Safety in Specialized Applications
Editor: Ken Barat
Description: Laser technology has spread over all aspects of modern society. A team of grad students is no longer required to keep a laser system up and running. This has put potentially hazardous laser systems in the hands of users who may not appreciate the risk from the laser product. Laser Safety in Specialized Applications, edited by Ken Barat, covers 11 areas where such laser systems are used: forensics, consumer products, underwater setting, space, trade shows, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) Project, art conservations, astronomy guide star, public educational institutions, biotech labs, and fiber optic use in labs. A chapter on the fundamentals of laser safety and accident investigation is also included.

Title: Actions For Survival: Saving Lives in the Immediate Hours After Release of Radioactive or Other Toxic Agents
Author: Allen Brodsky
Description: Actions for Survival is a hardback book that provides not only life saving information for the general public, but also recommendations for leaders of government agencies and emergency response organizations in order to enhance their ability to protect the public and to reduce the effects of weapons of mass destruction. The emphasis in the book is on providing simplified information and rules of thumb for early actions in the seconds, minutes and early hours after an attack before the limited number of scientists are able to assess the extents of damage and exposure, and before the limited number of responders will be able to assist individual families and members of the public. The book also explains why the public has been most subject to the exaggertions of low level exposres, and provides information on radiation risks versus dose and recommendations for public education that would prevent unwarranted panic in the vast areas that might be contaminated with radioactive materials.

Title: Handbook for Survival - Information for Saving Lives During Radiation Releases and Other Disasters
Author: Allen Brodsky
Description: This is Dr. Brodsky's 9th book with data and information for protecting health and saving lives. This paperback publication condenses his 2011 book into life-saving information easily followed by any member of the public. Simple but important cautions to take to save life upon seeing a flash of light, hearing an explosion, or expecting a possible hurricane, are given. Provisions and food to store are listed for at least a two-week stay at home or in shelter during and after any disaster. Additional references and sources of information are also given for those who want to look deeper into maximum protection. Also, an appendix presents the urgency for preparing for possible terrorist attacks and how our military might prevent them. Information in Dr. Brodsky's book fills gaps in official homeland security preparations and will empower civilians to save their own families, not only from radiation but also from other natural disasters or terrorist events.

Title: Fundamentals of Health Physics & Radiation Safety
Author: Philip C. Fulmer, PhD, CHP
Description: This is an all-new twenty-first century textbook on nuclear radiation safety and health physics. It is not an all-purpose reference book but a solid introduction to the science of radiation protection. Based on the author's career as a health physicist and 20+ years of teaching classes to university students and in nuclear facilities, the chapters are organized in a logical progressive manner. The content is aimed for first-time students who have had basic classes in nuclear radiation interactions and radioactivity so that the learning begins immediately with principles of radiation safety. Modern calculational methods are taught along with techniques to use online resources and software to quickly advance beyond rudimentary hand calculations. Over 350 pages of solid learning material show the technical basis for how professional-level radiation protection personnel approach problems in the workplace. Foundational in its approach, this book prepares the reader to understand why things work as they do and then apply the principles to specific workplace environments where radiation and radioactive materials are used.

Title: Radium City, A History of America's First Nuclear Industry
Author: Joel Lubenau and Edward R. Landa
Description: In 1913, Standard Chemical Company (SCC) of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, became the first American company to commercially produce radium and by 1921 produced more radium than any other company in the world. That year, Marie Curie received a gift at the White House of one gram of radium, costing $100,000, from the Women of America. SCC produced the gram and, afterwards, Curie visited the company's plants. This book is an account of how two brothers, James J. and Joseph M. Flannery, undertakers-turned-industrialists, twice succeeded in making once rare metals, vanadium and radium, in commercially available quantities. Vanadium steel made Ford's Model T possible and the vanadium enterprise provided the business model for producing and marketing radium. SCC played a major role in promoting the medical use of radium in America. Medical radium paved the way for today's use of radioactive material in medicine, an important legacy. But there were other legacies—the effects of exposure to radium on worker health and environmental consequences of mining, production, and refining of radium. The government had a prominent role even dating to the earliest days of the company when it threatened to compete with SCC. And yes, Pittsburgh was, briefly, nicknamed "Radium City."

Title: Radioactive Air Sampling Methods
Editors: Mark L. Maiello and Mark D. Hoover
Description: Although the field of radioactive air sampling has matured and ivolved over decades, it has lacked a single resource that assimilates technical and background information on its many facets. Edited by experts and with contributions from top practitioners and researchers, Radioactive Air Sampling Methods provides authoritative guidance on measuring airborne radioactivity from industrial, research, and nuclear power operations, as well as naturally occurring radioactivity in the environment. Designed for industrial hygienists, air quality experts, and heath physicists, the book delves into the applied research advancing and transforming practice with improvements to measurement equipment, human dose modeling of inhaled radioactivity, and radiation safety regulations. To present a wide picture of the field, it covers the international and national standards that guide the quality of air sampling measurements and equipment. It discusses emergency response issues, including radioactive fallout and the assets used to assess airborne radioactive emergencies.

Title: Radiological Risk Assessment and Environmental Analysis [Hardcover]
Editor: John E. Till, Helen A. Grogan
Description: Radiological Risk Assessment and Environmental Analysis comprehensively explains methods used for estimating risk to people exposed to radioactive materials released to the environment by nuclear facilities or in an emergency such as a nuclear terrorist event. This is the first book that merges the diverse disciplines necessary for estimating where radioactive materials go in the environment and the risk they present to people. It is not only essential to managers and scientists, but is also a teaching text. The chapters are arranged to guide the reader through the risk assessment process, beginning with the source term (where the radioactive material comes from) and ending with the conversion to risk. In addition to presenting mathematical models used in risk assessment, data is included so the reader can perform the calculations. Each chapter also provides examples and working problems. The book will be a critical component of the rebirth of nuclear energy now taking place, as well as an essential resource to prepare for and respond to a nuclear emergency.
