Herbert M. Parker: Publications and other contributions to radiological and health physics
For more than a half century, Herbert M. Parker was a leading force in radiological physics. This book brings together all of Parker's published and unpublished papers and is divided into six parts. The second edition is on his work in medical physics. The third part is on his contribution to the evolution of radiological units. The fourth and largest portion of the book is on radiation protection: the Manhattan Project and beyond. There are no less than 31 subsections to this part of the book, and it includes: possible hazards of repeated fluoroscopy in infants, health protection, health physics implementation and radiation protection, radiation protection in the atomic energy industry, radiation exposure from environmental hazards, personnel dosimetry for radiation accidents, and an article on the dilemma of lung dosimetry.
