Radiation? What's that all about then? Where does radiation come from? What does it do? This audiobook takes a look at the many different types of radiation including radioactivity, X-rays, and other forms of emissions such as cell phone radiation. It also examines the nuclear power industry and the effects that different types of radiation have on living cells. The book is backed up by references to other works on this topic, and every term used is explained in a jargon-free, easy-to-understand fashion. This book would be useful to students and laypersons who need to be better informed on radiation.

The narration is not bad, given the. material. The book does not seem directed to a specific audience. It is sort of a chatty discussion about a few radiation related topics. It might be suitable for children, but does not seem aimed so. Very light in the explanation and occasionally wrong or at best fuzzy.
