From the publication:
P R E F A C E The Environmental Health Committee of the British Columbia Medical Association agrees with a statement made by Mr. James E. Gander at the Conference on Nuclear Issues in the Community (CONIC) in Vancouver, March 1979 - that economic issues of the energy debate are "light years below ethics and health issues". There seems to be, however, a general lack of factual knowledge among health professionals, the public, the workers, the native peoples, the government, the nuclear industry and the media about the health issues of the nuclear fuel chain which makes intelligent discussion impossible and ludicrous generalizations and comparisons inevitable. This bibliography/literature review is an effort to give a broader understanding to all concerned, as they, their children, and their children's children, will be affected by decisions made in the near future. In the final analysis, it is the public that must become informed and assume an active role in the debate.
