Sommario/riassunto |
|
Through diverse ethnographic case studies, leading food scholars examine the meaning and making of place and taste. In doing so, the book challenges unsettling terroir-inspired notions of a fixed taste of place and pushes the boundaries of what we think we know about their connections. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Focused attention by world leaders is needed to address the substantial challenges posed by disposal of spent nuclear fuel from reactors and high-level radioactive waste from processing such fuel. The biggest challenges in achieving safe and secure storage and permanent waste disposal are societal, although technical challenges remain. Disposition of radioactive wastes in a deep geological repository is a sound approach as long as it progresses through a stepwise decision-making process that takes advantage of technical advances, public participation, and international cooperation. Written for concerned citizens as well as policymakers, this book was sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and waste management organizations in eight other countries. |
