Nuclear Waste Management: Building a Foundation to Enhance Trust. 330 $aHundreds of studies have investigated public perceptions and preferences about nuclear power, waste management, and technology. However there is clear lack of uniformity in the style, aims and methods applied.  Consequently, the body of results is inconsistent and it is difficult to isolate relevant patterns or interpretations. Nuclear Waste Management, Nuclear Power and Energy Choices: Public Preferences, Perceptions and Trust presents a theoretical base for public reactions then classifies and reviews the large body of surveys carried out over the past decade.   Particular focus is placed on residents within 50 miles US nuclear waste facilities due to the disproportionate presence of nuclear factors in their lives such as the legacy of nuclear waste disposal and job dependency. The motivations and reasons for their views such as fear, attraction to the economic benefits, trust of site managers and federal agencies, cultural views, personal history, and demographic attributes of the people are also considered to provide a balanced and detailed overview. Nuclear Waste Management, Nuclear Power and Energy Choices: Public Preferences, Perceptions and Trust includes a comprehensive treatment of the theories and literature, and most important is grounded in surveys in 2005, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 which includes questions considering the impact of Fukushima on US public opinion.   By including real life data alongside the analysis, Nuclear Waste Management, Nuclear Power, and Energy Choices: Public Preferences, Perceptions and Trust provides a relevant and concise reference for nuclear industry professionals. It also acts a resource for students and researchers studying nuclear-related topics including political, social and environmental factors. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Energy,$x2195-1284 ;$v2 606 $aNuclear power plants$xPublic opinion 606 $aRadioactive pollution 606 $aRadioactive waste disposal$xPublic opinion 606 $aRadioactive waste disposal$xSocial aspects 606 $aRadioactive waste sites 615 0$aNuclear power plants$xPublic opinion. 615 0$aRadioactive pollution. 615 0$aRadioactive waste disposal$xPublic opinion. 615 0$aRadioactive waste disposal$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aRadioactive waste sites. 676 $a333.7924 676 $a363.72/890971 676 $a363.728909 700 $aGreenberg$b Michael R$040789 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437763503321 996 $aNuclear waste management, nuclear power, and energy choices$94184354 997 $aUNINA
