| Abstract | In 1950 a mimeographed set of data was prepared for the students attending the Radiological Health Training Courses offered by the Public Health Service at the Environmental Health Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. These data were so useful for both the students and staff they were extended, reorganized and assembled in 1951 into a temporary booklet. The cordial response to such a compilation of data, the addition of more and varied course in the field of radiological health, the exponential progress in the theory and use of atomic energy, and the student recommendations inspired the issuance of the 1952 edition of the Radiological Health Handbook. This edition of the Handbook includes the revised table of isotopes and utilizes the more recent data from this table to calculate other entries in the handbook. |
