This text offers students a background and basic understanding of the biophysical bases of radiation, radiation safety standards and the key factors in radiation protection. This revised and expanded edition covers a range of subjects such as radiation dosimetry, basic physical principles, biological effects of radiation, criticality control, and radiation surveillance. The author also highlights new findings on non-ionizing radiation (laser and microwaves), computer use in dose calculation, and dose limit recommendations from the International Commission on Radiation Protection. It aims to provide students with an essential framework and practical introduction to scientific principles and the problem-solving approaches needed in daily radiation protection practice.
