Ultimately, \u003cem\u003eFundamentals of Radiation Biology\u003c\/em\u003e considers circumstantial radiation incidents impacting biological systems including radiological terrorism and radiation pollution remediation. Chapters presenting an overview of carcinogenesis and radiation therapy techniques based in radiobiology discuss two significant expansions central to the concerns of the text.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book takes an unprecedented narrative approach to radiobiology; each chapter expands on the fundamentals surveyed previously to lead the reader steadily to a panorama of radiation biocomplexity. No biological event happens in isolation. Actions evoke reactions that alter structures and cause living systems to adapt. It also examines the components constituting mammalian radiation response machinery and correlates them with resultant physiological behaviors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Klein Susan B\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.88d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789811257650","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48016480993417,"sku":"9789811257650","price":148.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_9231ad09-1c72-4324-bea8-d8f3e76dbfe3.jpg?v=1787688622","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/fundamentals-of-radiation-biology-9789811257650","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
