From the publication:
Why are there leukemia clusters near many nuclear facilities? Why are cancer rates throughout the world increasing exponentially? How can we explain the increasing incidence of cot death and low birth-weight babies? In Wings of Death Chris Busby argues that ionizing radiation-from nuclear fallout and radioactive waste-has been amongst the causes of these and many other serious illnesses and is responsible for many premature deaths. In the Sellafield leukemia trial it was accepted that there is a statistical link between nuclear power and cancer in children. But the case failed because no biological mechanism could be found. Chris Busby has discovered what this mechanism is-in his Second-Event Theory-and explains it in this book. Dr Busby presents his case with a clarity and passion rare in scientific writing. All the information needed to understand the central thesis is contained in the book, which includes: an empowering explanation of how cancer is caused, a simple introduction to the physics of radiation and a brief history of the radiation age and its consequences for human health.
