[cdn-nucl-l] All in the Mind: A nuclear plant in the neighbourhood -- Probing the nuclear psyche
This link that Esam sent us is quite remarkable to read and listen to.

(Chernobyl) is the fear that it causes.

Thought this might be of interest to some:
"Japanese psychoanalyst Dr Naoto Kawabata is working with devastated
communities evacuated after the Tohoku earthquake and nuclear disaster in
Fukushima Prefecture. Cardiff University's Understanding Risk team has
studied people living adjacent to British nuclear plants, to explore how it
shapes their identities. Probing the nuclear psyche."
