The Invisible Passenger: Radiation Risks For People Who Fly
2nd Edition
Robert J. Barish, PhD
Of all of the potentially harmful things we encounter in our society, radiation is one of the most feared.
The Invisible Passenger: Radiation Risks For People Who Fly explains how if you fly often, especially if you’re one of the aircrew or a frequent flyer, you receive radiation doses that are higher than those received by most other people.
This book lays out the facts of flying radiation risks and helps to put the risks of in-flight radiation exposure into their proper perspective when weighed against other risks in your occupation and in life in our technical society.
Did You Know:
-In 1994 the FAA classified all flight crew as radiation workers.
-Since May 2000, European law required that all EU air carriers provide radiation training and dose assessment for their air crew.
-Pregnant women who fly regularly, either as crewmembers or passengers, might exceed recommended radiation exposure levels for pregnancy.
-Certain "storms on the sun" can significantly raise in-flight radiation levels beyond the norm for brief periods.
-The FAA wants aircrew to understand the heath implications of their occupational exposure to ionizing radiation and their scientists have published extensively on the subject.
