HISASHI OUCHI :: TOKAIMURA :: NUCLEAR DISASTER :: REAL EVENTS :: RADIOACTIVITY
On September 30, 1999, Japan witnessed a radiation tragedy as shocking as the Chernobyl nuclear disaster: the Tokaimura accident. Three workers were exposed to extremely high doses of radiation while handling enriched uranium during nuclear fuel preparation. Among them was Hisashi Ouchi, who became globally known as “the most radioactive man in history.”
This book carefully and respectfully reconstructs what happened inside the plant where Hisashi Ouchi worked. Drawing on decades of expertise in nuclear physics, the author explains the science behind the accident, the devastating medical struggle to keep Ouchi alive for 83 days, and the human and institutional failures that turned a routine job into a catastrophe.
More than just a factual account, this work blends history, science, and a reflection on human tragedy. It reveals not only the effects of radiation on the human body but also the lessons Tokaimura left for global nuclear safety.
A must-read for anyone interested in true stories, nuclear accidents, Chernobyl, Goiânia, and historical events that shaped humanity.
