Nuclear energy plays a vital role in the lives of every man, woman and child in today's world. In the years now and to come, it will continue to affect all the peoples of the Earth. If we want to thoughtfully fulfill our duties as citizens, and if we want to fully realize the myriad benefits that nuclear energy offers us, it is crucial that we educate ourselves to understand this vital force. This booklet was commissioned by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission in 1966 and is interesting to read today.
