Hirose is the author of several books, including Nuclear Reactor Time Bomb (2010), which predicted a Fukushima-style disaster. Hirose, like several others included in this reader, represents the voice of the knowledgeable layman; he is not an expert/scholar on nuclear power, but the meticulous research he has done and his own common sense have earned him wide respect. This article is an excerpt from Hirose's new book, Fukushima Meltdown.
