Wonderful bright illustrations. From the rear panel- "There are sectioned drawings, in colour, of many of the nuclear reactors in Great Britain- the research reactors at Harwell, the world's first industrial-scale nuclear power station at Calder Hall, the much larger power station at Hinkley Point, and the Dounreay fast reactor. Finally, glancing into the future, the book describes fusion reactions and Zeta."
