Product Description

Review

... contains a lot of valuable material and is not only a handbook, but also an excellent textbook. (CERN Courier )

... enriched with many references to useful websites, including databases. (CERN Courier )

The book establishes both Holmes-Siedle and Adams as two of the most fertile and fruitful research scholars working in the field of radiation environments. (Current Engineering Practice )

Holmes-Siedle and Adams' engrossing handbook is probably the most readable, ambitious and intelligent work on radiation effects yet published, that also stands out as a comprehensive guide to the literature, both printed and on-line. At the same time, it is technically accurate but accessible to practitioners as well as researchers ... a most commendable book. (Current Engineering Practice )

CERN Courier

"... contains a lot of valuable material and is not only a handbook, but also an excellent textbook."

A must reference/text book for everyone in Space Radiation. 29 Jan 1998

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover

This text details nearly everything one need to know for a basic understanding of radiation effects on electronic components and systems. Lots of very useful tables and graphs that are needed nearly daily by the radiation experts as well as the beginners in the field. Andy & Len have done a great job putting all this information in a very understandable format. A must reference/test for everyone in the Space Radiation business. Dr. Michael K. Gauthier, ICS RADIATION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

Randbook of Radiation Prefects 12 Oct 2009

By Bartok Kinski - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover

Good book which details a fundamental grasp of radiation effects upon material substances, including alien skin tissue, earth based metals and holographic environments.

I brought it with me when flying across the Atlantic Ocean and was startled to find out that radiation can transmute any jet engine. There's even times that it can bring a big jet down.

It's a good book if you need knowledge of defeating complex alien life forms, as radiation can kill any living skin tissue or metallic matter (think robots).

In all, handy for a library or someone with a passing fascination of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
