At 01:23 AM in the morning of April 26th 1986, the world was shaken by a man-made nuclear disaster: Unit 4 of the Chernobyl power plant met historical devastation that night, resulting in lasting ecological, medical, and political effects.
The causes of such an accident for long remained behind the veil of governmental secrecy. For years, the people remained shocked by an RBMK explosion, and its ramifications remained unforeseen for years. The careless response and irresponsible state attitude towards the dangers of nuclear catastrophe brought more harm to the world, endangering widespread population living in Eastern Europe to the far in the west.
The complete account of the Chernobyl disaster could have only been drawn by connecting its dots with the historical development of nuclear power in the world, particularly in the Soviet Union.
After ten years of research, and the observations from the conducted investigations, historical and on-going developments at the Chernobyl, the author Svetlana Kostenko, has written a detailed and in-depth narrative of this nuclear accident and unfolded all the series of events that led to this eventual disaster.
Who was truly responsible for the explosion?
Was it a human error, a technical fault, or mere propaganda?
