From the publication:

Dear Friends,

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to our groundbreaking symposium, 
Nuclear Power and Children's Health.

Nuclear Power and Children's Health was planned to educate soccer moms, students, 
and medical professionals about the dangerous effects of nuclear power on the health 
of children. We believe that the policy analysts, members of the media, and nuclear 
abolitionists that will be brought together at the symposium will provide excellent 
discussion and debate about the role of nuclear power in regards to children's health.

It is our sincere hope that you will use this symposium as an opportunity to learn 
and raise key questions affecting all of our futures.

We would also like to take this moment to thank those that have helped make this 
symposium a success. The board and staff of the Nuclear Policy Research Institute 
thank the Nuclear Information and Resource Service (NIRS), Physicians for Social 
Responsibility-Chicago, the North Suburban Peace Initiative (NSPI), and the Nuclear 
Energy Information Service (NEIS) for their active engagement and partnership in 
planning this conference. In particular, we appreciate the time, support, and 
expertise that Dave Kraft at NEIS, Corey Conn at NEIS, Michael Mariotte at NIRS, 
Mary Buntin at NSPI, and Andy Kanter at PSR-Chicago gave to making this 
conference a success.

On behalf of the Nuclear Policy Research Institute, the Nuclear Information and 
Resource Service (NIRS), Physicians for Social Responsibility-Chicago (PSR), and 
our co-sponsoring organizations the North Suburban Peace Initiative (NSPI) and the 
Nuclear Energy Information Service (NEIS), we extend a hearty thank you to all of 
our speakers for lending their expertise and time to the symposium.

Thank you to W.W. Norton for their generous donation of copies of Nuclear 
Madness and to Peace Coffee for their donation of coffee. We also extend our 
gratitude to St. Scholastica Academy and Misericordia and the staff at both places 
for hosting these events.

Finally, we'd like to thank Emerald Young, Amanda McBroom, Roe Anne White 
Photography, Steffan DeClue, CANTV, and all of the volunteers who shared with 
us their time and special gifts to make this event a success.

This conference wouldn't be possible without you either! Thank you for joining us 
at this important conference. We hope you all enjoy the conference and take what 
you learn to educate others about the dangers of nuclear power.

With respect,

Helen Caldicott, M.D.
NPRI President
