Excerpt

At the end of World War II, several nations embarked on the development of nuclear energy as a means of generating electricity. This created nuclear wastes that are today the subject of much technical investigation and popular discussion. It is the authors’ contention that contaminant hydrogeology was born and bred by these nuclear-energy laboratories in North America and Europe in the first decades following World War II. …
