This selection of 479 papers through 1976, dealing with various aspects of the dosimetry of radon and its daughters, should be of interest to those concerned with assessing literature on problems associated with uranium mines and mill tailings and with development of criteria for the disposition of sites contaminated with uranium and its decay products. Major topics include background levels, epidemiology, food chains, ingestion, inhalation, metabolic models, pathology, synergistic effects of smoking plus inhalation of radon daughters, soil, standards, uranium mine and mill tailings and contamination of water. The principal elements covered are uranium, radium, radon, polonium, lead and bismuth. The papers are classified into 35 categories, ranging alphabetically from AIR to WORKING LEVEL, each containing up to seven subcategories.
