The growing trend of global "Resource Nationalism" is challenging established commodity supply networks. There are currently 437 nuclear reactors around the world, a number which is expected to grow to 474 in 2013. China is projected to have 20 nuclear reactors in 2013, from nine in 2004, and Japan will jump from 53 to 63 by that year, as well. With rapidly increasing demand from developing nations, such as China and India, it is essential for the U.S. to further develop its nuclear generation assets in order to successfully meet growing domestic electricity requirements and lessen our dependence on foreign sources of energy. This book explores all of the issues related to developing America's nuclear energy capabilities safely and cost-effectively to avoid increasing dependence on finite supplies of foreign oil.
