My Chernobyl: What's Wrong with Nuclear Power and How to Fix It

This is a personal account of author’s participation in a failed attempt—never before published—to apply the same standards to the Chernobyl-type nuclear power plants with RBMK reactors in the Soviet Union as for the Paks, Hungary VVER NPP. In 1985 he emigrated from Hungary to the United States and participated in the U.S. Department of Energy’s effort to force the Soviet Union to report—for the first time in its history reporting about an internal event—to the international community about the Chernobyl disaster. This book is also his personal account of the technical issues he dealt with and the historical events he has been part of.
