Nuclear power offers affordable, secure, and climate-friendly electricity to an energy-hungry world.  But in order to deliver on its promises, the nuclear industry must address several complex challenges—including political, commercial, environmental, logistical, as well as technological.

CORE ISSUES: Dissecting Nuclear Power Today, by Steve Kidd, analyses the challenges faced by the nuclear power sector and provides a practical overview of where the industry is today, where it is heading, and how it can overcome the many obstacles in its path to get there.
