Dr. Sherman has recently completed the translation and editing of the book Chernobyl: Consequences of the Catastrophe for People and Nature, published by the New York Academy of Sciences in December 2009, which indicates that nearly one million people were killed by the Chernobyl disaster which places the gravity of damage far beyond that of the meltdown at Fukushima Daiichi. There are also several indicators that this terrible tragedy was partially the combo result of state/corporate crime. If interested in the entire book free of charge then follow this link and download a digital copy. What do you think???? http://www.strahlentelex.de/Yablokov%20Chernobyl%20book.pdf
