Book Containing the Atom

    Book Details:
  • Author : J. Samuel Walker
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 1992-01-01
  • ISBN : 9780520079137
  • Pages : 548 pages

Download or read book Containing the Atom written by J. Samuel Walker and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late 1960s saw an extraordinary growth in the American nuclear industry: dozens of plants of unprecedented size were ordered throughout the country. Yet at the same time, public concern about the natural environment and suspicion of both government and industry increased dramatically. Containing the Atom is the first scholarly history of nuclear power regulation during those tumultuous years. J. Samuel Walker focuses on the activities of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, the agency entrusted with the primary responsibility for the safety of nuclear power, and shows that from the beginning the AEC faced a paradox: it was charged with both promoting and controlling the nuclear power industry. Out of this paradox grew severe tensions, which Walker discusses in detail. His balanced evaluation of the issues and the positions taken by the AEC and others makes this study an invaluable resource for all those interested in the continuing controversies that surround nuclear energy.

Book Disrupting Science

    Book Details:
  • Author : Kelly Moore
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2013-12-15
  • ISBN : 0691162093
  • Pages : 325 pages

Download or read book Disrupting Science written by Kelly Moore and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2013-12-15 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Drawing extensively from archival sources and in-depth interviews, Kelly Moore examines the features of American science that made it an attractive target for protesters in the early cold war and Vietnam eras, including scientists' work in military research and activities perceived as environmentally harmful. She describes the intellectual traditions that protesters drew from - liberalism, moral individualism, and the New Left - and traces the rise and influence of scientist-led protest organizations such as Science for the People and the Union of Concerned Scientists. Moore shows how scientist protest activities disrupted basic assumptions about science and the ways scientific knowledge should be produced, and recast scientists' relationships to political and military institutions."--Jacket.

Book Routledge Revivals  Energy  1975

Download or read book Routledge Revivals Energy 1975 written by Denton E. Morrison and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1975, Energy provides a comprehensive bibliography of energy in the context of the social sciences. The book argues that energy problems are best seen in the context of social phenomena, such as social attitudes, social behaviours, social institutions and structures and populations. The authors argue that to examine energy problems outside of the context of social factors is to lack a full and detailed examination of the subject. The bibliography provides a comprehensive collection of sources from a range of areas in the social sciences on the subject of energy.

Book Metropolis in the Making

    Book Details:
  • Author : Tom Sitton
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2001-08-01
  • ISBN : 0520935527
  • Pages : 385 pages

Download or read book Metropolis in the Making written by Tom Sitton and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2001-08-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los Angeles came of age in the 1920s. The great boom of that decade gave shape to the L.A. of today: its vast suburban sprawl and reliance on the automobile, its prominence as a financial and industrial center, and the rise of Hollywood as the film capital of the world. This collection of original essays explores the making of the Los Angeles metropolis during this remarkable decade. The authors examine the city's racial, political, cultural, and industrial dynamics, making this volume an essential guide to understanding the rise of Los Angeles as one of the most important cities in the world. These essays showcase the work of a new generation of scholars who are turning their attention to the history of the City of Angels to create a richer, more detailed picture of our urban past. The essays provide a fascinating look at life in the new suburbs, in the oil fields, in the movie studios, at church, and at the polling place as they reconceptualize the origins of contemporary urban problems and promise in Los Angeles and beyond. Adding to its interest, the volume is illustrated with period photography, much of which has not been published before.
