1986Very Good Turkish Original wrappers. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In Turkish. 64 p., b/w ills. Two ex-library stamps on front and back covers. A rare Turkish brochure printed by "Folk Culture Center" in Germany for Turkey after the Chernobyl disaster in 1986. The Chernobyl accident was a catastrophic nuclear accident that occurred on 25-26 April 1986 in the No. 4 nuclear reactor of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, near the city of Pripyat, in northern Ukrainian SSR. [.] No evidence of changes in the prevalence of human deformities/birth congenital anomalies which might be associated with the accident, are apparent in Belarus or Ukraine, the two republics which had the highest exposure to fallout. In Sweden and Finland where no increase in abortion rates occurred, it was likewise determined that "no association between the temporal and spatial variations in radioactivity and variable incidence of congenital malformations [was found]." A similar null increase in the abortion rate and a healthy baseline situation of no increase in birth defects was determined by the assessment of the Hungarian Congenital Abnormality Registry, Findings also mirrored in Austria. Larger, "mainly western European" data sets approaching a million births in the EUROCAT database, divided into "exposed" and control groups were assessed in 1999. As no Chernobyl-based impacts were detected, the researchers conclude "in retrospect the widespread fear in the population about the possible effects of exposure on the unborn fetus was not justified". Despite studies from Germany and Turkey, the only robust evidence of negative pregnancy outcomes that transpired after the accident were these elective abortion indirect effects, in Greece, Denmark, Italy, etc., due to the anxieties created. This is an extremely rare brochure prepared for Turkey by the German government on Chernobyl including the effects of disaster and the measures for the same, accompanied by many b/w illustrations in a very interesting black humor style. No institutional copy in OCLC.

Seconda edizione rivisitata e ampliata (2nd Revisited and Augmented Edition). . Un volume monumentale che, attraverso le immagini, ripercorre tutta la carriera di Gianni Bertini. Un artista che disegnando un percorso sempre riconoscibile, ha aderito a diversi "movimenti" del Novecento, dai Gridi segnaletici al MAC al Nucleare, dal Nouveau Réalisme fotosensibile alla Mec Art alla poesia visiva, fino all'attuale impiego delle tecnologie digitali. Il trait d'union di tutta la sua opera è il narcisismo, derivante da un gusto surrealista formatosi negli anni parigini. Un narcisismo ostentato e spregiudicato che diventa esaltazione del proprio io e che si concretizza attraverso il gesto - fu il primo in Italia - dello sgocciolamento del colore. Un gesto freddo, una serie di immagini accomunate dalla grande lucidità mentale che dà forza alla ricerca sperimentalistica. Un continuo rinnovamento che attraversa tutta la sua produzione artistica e che investe sia le forme che il linguaggio. Un divenire esistenziale ma sempre immerso nella realtà contaminata, un linguaggio volgare che diventa grido impetuoso in grado di scuotere anche lo spettatore più inerte.Ristampa della prima Monografia del lavoro di Gianni Bertini eseguito dal 1949 al 1971.

1979ref. 87716Washington DC: Defense Nuclear Agency 1979. Preliminary Draft. Comb binding. Fair. iii 60 pages some pages have multiple page numbers used with designation of "a" 'b' etc. These added pages appear to be solely used for illustrations. Pages printed on one side only. Cover has some wear and soiling. There is a blank page between pages 21 and 22. Illustrations/figures/tables. Maps. Tabular data. Ink notation at bottom of front cover. Pencil correction on page iii. replacing 'demolition' with 'detonation'. Pencil notations on pages 14 17 18 46 and 59. There appear to have been no pages 15 and 16 as the text flows seamlessly from page 14 to page 17. The text moves from page 32 through 32a to 33 b. There is a gap before page 34 indicating a missing page 33 and illustration 33a. It is not unusual for there to be areas where the document appears incomplete as this is stated as a preliminary draft and it is possible some text and illustration were removed pending resolution of potential concerns regarding information classification. The Department of Defense led the radiological cleanup of Enewetak Atoll in the Marshall Islands. The combined federal effort cost about $100 million and required an on-atoll task force numbering almost 1000 people for three years 1977-1980. The departments of Defense Energy and Interior were involved in this project. The DOD organized three separate efforts in support of the cleanup: Removal and lagoon-dumping of uncontaminated debris and structures removal and crater-entombment of radiological contaminated debris and structures and excision and crater-entombment of radiological contaminated soil from the islands. This document is not listed/identified on the ENEWETAK ATOLL CLEANUP DOCUMENTS web page which is an official U.S. Government web page supported by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. This chapter discusses Operation Sandstone Rehabilitation and Construction Activities Operation Greenhouse Operation Ivy Operation Castle Operation Redwing Operation Hardtack Moratorium and provides a Summary of Test Effects. There is a discussion of the Effects of Test Program on 26 individual islands. There is a discussion of the effect of Atoll experience on cleanup. and the final portion addresses Enewetak Interim 1958-1972 and Projects Hues Pace and Expo. An example of the information content is from pages 31 and 32: "Fallout from 16 events caused Eleleron to be ranked second of all islands of the atoll in H-1 hour exposure having accumulated 10643 R/hr. Most of the land mass receiving this exposure has been blasted or eroded away. Soil sampling showed surface activity to be relatively low and the one profile sample displayed a homogeneous distribution with depth this being considered to be the result of hydraulic influences."
