Asleep at the Geiger Counter: Nuclear Destruction of the Planet and how to Stop It Book

Preface (The roar of silence about DU poisoning in the U.S., although it made the front pages all over Europe. Urges readers to learn more about what is not covered by our media.)

1. Anecdotal Evidence (Some anecdote! A look at what is brushed off as merely anecdotal evidence.)

2. Hope and Pride (A look at the dream that nuclear technology could be of great benefit to humankind, and how I was proud to participate in a nuclear project until I learned better.)

3. Oh, What Happened to Us! (Suppressed and persecuted truth-tellers. Also includes an account of how I was pressured to approve a design which could kill people and cause extensive property damage, with a long list of how this depravity happens in industry, particularly in the nuclear industry.)

4. Is Murphy's Law Legal? (You be the judge. Starts out with how I was nearly killed by a mishap, develops mishaps throughout the ages, leading up to nuclear Murphyisms.)

5. Apple Pie (Like mother never baked. Rather than nuclear power being safer than mom's apple pie, it is a concoction of scientists who are bad apples. Parades a list of bad-apple pies from the chemical industry, the tobacco industry, and the nuclear industry.)

6. Sunshine Effects (Not heartwarming. Global warming is strongly indicated by hard-to-deny evidence.)

7. Nuclear Power ... the Only Answer (Answered. Extensive description of cleaner, safer, less costly alternatives which have been crushed.)

8. The Wind Stops Blowing (A new law of physics. Many examples of violations of elementary physics by nuclear liars. One is that the wind stops blowing when you have a nuclear accident. Explained simply.)

9. The Great Uranium Shell Game (Brazen fraud. There isn't enough fissionable uranium for a greatly expanded nuclear program without going to the plutonium reactor, which poses hideous problems. Exposes shenanigans.)

10. Really How Much Energy from Nukes? (Very low net yield. Explains how easy it is to deduce this shocking result using elementary analysis. This chapter crunches key official summary numbers to reveal the implications of the great uranium shell game.)

11. Nobody, but Nobody Died at Three Mile Island! (Holocaust denied.)

12. Have We Got a Solution for You! (Mad scientists on the march. Covers the use of nuclear waste as a fertilizer, depleted uranium, food irradiation, etc.)

13. Cleaner Than Coal (Debunks the fraudulent claim that nuclear is cleaner than coal. It isn't even cleaner than the dirtiest coal-burning operation when non-discussed factors are considered.)

14. Why Not Make Nuclear Plants Safe? (Basics of why it can't be, not ever.)

15. Your Rights (Rights denied.)

16. Sabotaging Our Security Blankets (Treason.)

17. Unfair Favoritism (Unlimited rip-off. Explains how favoritism for non-renewable energy gets much more than 300 times the government support that renewable sources get.)

18. The Point of Indian Point (Look at this poster child of the industry.)

19. We Carefully Plan the Transportation of Nuclear Poisons (The three stooges still live. Shocking evidence of absolute non-care.)

20. What About Civil Liberties? (Forget them. Nuclear technologies destroy civil liberties.)

21. Spaced Out (Nukes over our heads. Astronomical risks and costs.)

22. It's a Free Press (Theoretically. Examples of distortion and censorship.)

23. ALARA (As low as reasonably achievable. Who decides "reasonably"?)

24. Rules of Research (Ignored basics. An abstract of Dr. John Gofman's guidelines.)

25. By Executive Order (There Reagan went again. A little known edict by Reagan which proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that every nuke is a bomb-making machine, along with other info.)

26. They Want to Do It Again! (Repeating mistakes. The insanity of pushing forward with nukes again, and the faults of the latest generation of design.)

27. Denial Is Not a River in Egypt (The psychology of denial by nuclear folks, and the compulsive folly of it all.)
