After 1991, international organizations from the Red Cross to Greenpeace sought to help the victims, yet found themselves stymied by post-Soviet political circumstances they did not understand. International diplomats and scientists allied to the nuclear industry evaded or denied the fact of a wide-scale public health disaster caused by radiation exposure. Efforts to spin the story about Chernobyl were largely successful; the official death toll ranges between 31 and 54 people. In reality, radiation exposure from the disaster caused between 35,000 and 150,000 deaths in Ukraine alone.

I originally had to get this for class, but I got halfway through it and decided I also needed it on audible just for how good it was. Truly great book with a unique perspective, I’ve always thought science was immune to political influences but this book shows otherwise. Also with the increased connectivity of our world one thing that Brown does well is show how an issue in one corner of the world is not just isolated to that area but it impacts everyone, our foreign policy kind of blends into our domestic policy and vice versa.
Again fantastic book everyone not just those taking a Russian history course should read this!
