This essay relates the force referred to in the Standard Model of particle physics as ‘the Weak Force’ and the phenomenon called radioactivity. It covers the different types of particle rays emitted from radioactive isotopes, their effects on living tissue and steps that can be taken to minimize damage from ionizing radiation. This book would be useful as a study aid or of interest to anyone wanting to know a little more about nuclear power and radioactivity.
