Book Review

Conservation Fallout: Nuclear Protest at Diablo Canyon. By John Wills. (Reno: University of Nevada Press, 2006. xvi, 244 pp. $34.95, ISBN 978-0-87417-680-3.)

With skill and admirable prose, the historian John Wills, a lecturer at the University of Kent, examines twenty years of protest over California's Diablo Canyon nuclear plant. He has a fine sense of timing. In the last two decades nuclear energy has been moribund, a result of escalating costs and fears of another Chernobyl-like accident. However, with the passage of time and the reality of global warming, nuclear power is once again being touted as an alternative. Conservation Fallout is particularly welcome for both its historical perspective and hint at what we might expect in a nuclear future.
