He lived in Moscow ever since and served as an ordinary official in the Ministry of Energy, which, if you care to find out, was NOT the main government body responsible for nuclear power plants... So don't be misled into thinking he's a that big expert on NPPs. As for his book, it's full of incosistencies, not to mention the fact that there are cases of blatant lie as well. It's a pity you don't speak Russian, because here (www.forum.pripyat.com) the book is slammed by nuclear reactor operators and physicists as complete crap. Also, there's a book written by Anatoly Dyatlov, but unfortunately it's never been translated.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
