This book was released on 1974 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study recommends a strategy for developing U.S.-flag nuclear-powered merchant ships. It identifies and discusses key problem areas, including comparative economics, safety and environmental quality considerations, and finincial incentives and options. Four major conclusions and four principal recommendations are highlighted in the Summary; and subsidiary conclusions and recommendations appear in the supporting text. The main text is supported by 7 working papers, included as appendixes: The future of U.S. foreign trade; Costs and comparative costs for nuclear-powered and conventionally powered ships; The future price and availability of residual fuel oil; Trade route alternatives for nuclear propulsion applications; Health, safety, and environmental quality considerations; Prospects of unconventional propulsion for merchant marine applications; and Principal subsidies available to U.S.-flag ships engaged in foreign trade."--Page [127].

Book excerpt: Discover the fascinating stories and history of the U.S. Navy nuclear program. With five official histories and reports, this unique compilation provides a stunning, richly detailed overview of all aspects of this amazing story. Contents: Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program * Nuclear Navy 1946-1962 * Excerpt: Rearming for the Cold War 1945-1960 * Naval Reactors Overview - Naval Spent Nuclear Fuel Management * Excerpt from the Complete Guide to the Idaho National Laboratory (INL).Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program - This is a comprehensive, up-to-date survey of the U.S. Navy's nuclear propulsion program. Navy warships are deployed around the world every hour of every day to provide a credible "forward presence," ready to respond on the scene wherever America's interests are threatened. Nuclear propulsion plays an essential role in this, providing the mobility, flexibility, and endurance that today's smaller Navy requires to meet a growing number of missions. About 45 percent of the Navy's major combatants are nuclear-powered: 11 aircraft carriers, 53 attack submarines, and 18 strategic submarines (the Nation's most survivable deterrent) -- 4 of which were removed from strategic service and converted to a covert, high-volume, precision strike platform designated as SSGN.
