Targeted at both post-graduate students and the practising radiological protection professional. Designed for day-to-day use in identifying methodologies and techniques appropriate to addressing issues in radiological protection as they arise. Written by authors with extensive experience of the topics covered by their chapters. Edited in detail by an individual with experience in various areas of radiological protection to ensure coherence and a corresponding technical level across chapters written by different authors.
