OSTI ID:5545796
This book is a distillation of the report by the Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment (SCOPE), an international effort by over 200 scientists. Written for a lay audience, it presents the thrust of the original arguments of the two-volume study without the scientific minutiae. It explores the climatic and atmospheric changes induced, radiation and fallout, and the putative biological consequences.
