From the publication:

"A nuclear catastrophe is too big a price to pay for our electric bill." 
- Ralph Nader

"It is imperative that the American public understand that nuclear power generation 
is neither safe, nor clean, nor cheap; that new initiatives are urgently required if we 
are to avoid nuclear catastrophe .... One need not be a scientist or a nuclear engineer 
to take part in this emerging debate .... The nuclear power plants encroaching on our 
suburbs make it no longer possible for Americans to bury their heads in the sand and 
pretend that the fissioned atom does not exist."
- Helen Caldicott, author of Nuclear Madness

"Whether in power plants or weapons, the first line victims of radiation-induced 
cancer and leukemia are the workers in the nuclear industry. This book is important 
reading for all Americans, no matter where they work."
- William Winpisinger, President, International Association of Machinists and
Aerospace Workers

"Your children deserve to inherit a clean world, not one loaded with invisible 
poisons or threatened with meltdowns. For their sake oppose nuclear power. And 
don't be overawed by what the utilities say, for you can be sure that they will be 
the last to admit the frightening truth."
- Dr. Benjamin Spook
