Nuclear Energy

Confronting climate change demands a shift toward clean low-carbon and sustainable development. As we establish a new energy system nuclear power is poised to become a cornerstone of our future energy supply. Moreover it may ultimately prove essential to humanity's enduring expansion beyond the solar system and our pursuit of lasting prosperity.应对气候变化，实现清洁、低碳、可持续发展，建立新型能源体系，核能将成为未来重要的能源支柱，也将是人类走出太阳系、实现永续发展的终极选择！Book IntroductionThis book is a popular science publication that traces the development of nuclear energy offering comprehensive coverage of all aspects related to its evolution. It explores how nuclear energy was initially discovered how its power was harnessed (sometimes leading to catastrophic consequences) and the driving forces behind the iterative advancement of four generations of nuclear power technology.Although a technical popular science publication the book employs concise and engaging language to objectively recount humanity's tumultuous journey in exploring nuclear energy. It reflects our innate curiosity about the world our commitment to human progress and our relentless pursuit of technological risk management-ultimately returning to the fundamental principle of human-centered technological development.本书是一本介绍核能发展脉络的科普读物，全面涵盖了与核能发展相关的各个方面，包括核能最开始是怎样被发现的，是如何应用它的能量并在应用中造成灾难的，以及四代核电技术是在什么契机下进行迭代的等。本书虽然是技术类科普，但以简洁、风趣的语言客观介绍人类探索核能的曲折之旅的同时，表现人类在对世界探索的好奇、对人类发展的关注以及对技术风险控制的不断追求，最终回归技术发展以人为本的朴素愿望。
