Review

"...this book, which movingly illustrates the Chernobyl Legacy, is so important..." -- Kofi A. Annan, Secretary General of the United Nations, quote from Chernobyl Legacy

Product Description

Chernobyl Legacy bears witness to the present-day effects of the horrific nuclear accident that took place in the Ukraine in 1986. More than fifteen years following the disaster, searing images documenting the effects of this tragedy are central to the theme of the book--the people affected by Chernobyl. With a foreword by United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan and introduction by actor and United Nations Messenger of Peace, Michael Douglas, this book presents a photographic essay of the events during and after April 25, 1986. It also offers a historical background, definitions and facts.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXTREMELY POWERFUL !!!!, January 10, 2002

By A Customer

This book is an incredible testimonial of an accident that I seemed to have forgotten about. It put it right back in my face. The combination of the photographs and essays leaves no doubt about how dangerous nuclear power is, how little we know about, what happened in 1986 and what the REAL consequences of a nuclear accident are. NOW.

Something to think about ... Especially in times like this.

This is a BOOK TO READ, LOOK AT AND DISCUSS ABOUT. A definite keeper. Grat photography.
