This second edition provides an introduction to the expansive topic of nuclear engineering to an extensive audience. It encompasses all the engineering disciplines which are applied in the design, licensing, construction, and operation of nuclear reactors, nuclear power plants, nuclear fuel cycle facilities, and finally the decontamination and decommissioning of these facilities at the end of their useful operating life. It also introduces some important aspects of radiation and it applications. The handbook examines many of these aspects in its four sections.
