Uit de publicatie:
RADIATION, GENES & MAN BRUCE WALLACE & THEODORE DOBZHANSKY Atomic energy gives to man almost incredible power; but its use endangers his most precious possession-his genetic heritage. That threat is the subject of this book. Much ink has already been spilt on this subject and diametrically opposed views have been expressed with emotional conviction-to the confusion of the ordinary man. In this work two scientists of world repute explain the facts of radiation-induced mutations and their effects on living populations-particularly human populations. They estimate without bias the number of 'genetic deaths' to be expected under various conditions and on various assumptions. In so doing they present with extraordinary skill and lucidity a great deal of information on modern genetics in addition to their account of radiation, thus giving the general reader a scientific basis for reaching his own conclusions and evaluating the opinions of others.
