In this volume authors have contributed information on recent advances in radiation biology. Chapter titles are: Aspects of OER and RBE relevant to neutron therapy; Present status of the proposed use of negative pi mesons in radiotherapy; Human diseases associated with defective DNA repair; The induction of molecular and genetic recombination in eukaryotic cells; DNA damage and repair in higher plants; The effect of oxygen on the repair of radiation damage by cells and tissues; Manifestations of damage from ionizing radiation in mammalian cells in the postirradiation generations; Heritable lesions affecting proliferation of irradiated mammalian cells; and Tritium in the environment. Separate abstracts have been prepared for each chapter for inclusion in the Energy Data Base. (RJC)
