The Case for Nukes: How We Can Beat Global Warming and Create a Free, Open, and Magnificent Future, by Robert Zubrin. In this unique book, world-renowned nuclear and aerospace engineer Robert Zubrin, author of the Case For series, explains how nuclear power works and how much it has to offer humanity. He debunks falsehoods and misperceptions, discusses revolutionary developments in the field, and writes about the bold entrepreneurs leading this revolution in power technology. Zubrin also addresses the environmentalism debate, focusing on the differences between practical, ideological, and mercenary environmentalism, making clear both the possibility and necessity of a nuclear power-enabled revolution. When it comes to environmental improvement, freedom is the solution: The use of new technologies will create new resources and new knowledge, which makes possible still more technological advances. The Case for Nukes shows us how we can create this world of freedom. (330 pages, paperback, $19.95, ISBN 978-1-73638-606-4, Polaris Books; order from online book sellers)
