On My Nightstand: Uranium: War, Energy and the Rock That Shaped the World

The latest book to hit my nightstand is Uranium: War, Energy and the Rock That Shaped the World, by Tom Zoellner.

It's a timely book given the way that Iran is busy trying to develop the enrichment technologies necessary to provide weapons grade uranium, nuclear proliferation remains an issue, and nuclear power remains the black sheep of power sources in the US because of opposition on NIMBY grounds and what to do with radioactive waste.
