It's half expose on British History, half discussion of Britain's Sellafield nuclear reactor & the country's nuclear waste industry. <br/> <br/>The first part reminded me why we had a revolution. The second made me rethink the focus of Green Peace and their ilk. <br/> <br/>At times, I would have preferred more exacting evidence and arguments in lieu of the verbose style. <br/> <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/127933?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
