(4) YA New Perspectives series. An informative though somewhat unorganized volume describes the Chernobyl disaster--its causes, its containment, and its legacy--and includes accounts of other nuclear mishaps such as Three Mile Island. Color photographs depict the human costs of nuclear contamination and radiation poisoning; copious sidebars include quotes from primary sources but often impede the flow of the main text. Bib., glos., ind.
