Zusammenfassung:Forlagets beskrivelse: Bo Lindell's authoritative four-book series, "The History of Radiation, Radioactivity, and Radiological Protection", resting on this first-hand experience and scientific accuracy and spiced with his vivid sense of humour, has been translated into English as a joint effort by the Nordic Society for Radiation Protection (NSFS); the Nordic Nuclear Safety Research (NKS); the five Nordic regulatory authorities; and the International Radiation Protection Association (IRPA). The third book in the series, "The Labours of Hercules", is now available. This exciting and eminently readable book revolves around Rolf Sievert's achievements and the intense international developments from 1950 to 1966: progress of nuclear power, nuclear weapons proliferation and global radioactive fallout, significant releases of radioactive materials due to nuclear accidents, vast improvements in radiation-related medical diagnostics and therapy, far-reaching scientific discoveries including the role and structure of DNA, all described in Bo Lindell's personal narrative with many amusing and thought-provoking anecdotes
