Chernobyl

By Diana Hsieh

David Eiche sent me to a web site describing (with lots of photographs) a motorcycle drive-through of the disaster area of Chernobyl. I found it quite fascinating, although I know little about the disaster. (I was only 11 at the time. Paul in the middle of medical school. Heh.)

Since I'm presently devouring a multitude of books on Soviet communism... and thinking about nuclear power in my environmental philosophy class, does anyone have any book recommendations on Chernobyl? I'm more interested in the political response than the scientific details.
