a bitter legacy
(Australia) ]

The problems of contamination as a result of exposure
to ionizing radiation, whether human or natural in
origin are reviewed. It is revealed that cancer is still
on the increase in the exposed population from the
Hirosima and Nagasaki bombings, with genetic defects and
chromosomal aberrations higher than thought. The effect
of radiation fallout from the nuclear weapon tests in
the Pacific and USA are also discussed and it is
concluded that nuclear arsenals and the very existence
of nuclear facilities containing large inventories of
long-lived radionuclides constitute a major threat to
the health of humankind,

There are many types of uncertainties involved in the
estimation of risks or dose-effect relationships under
emergency conditions, However, they may be divided into

two major categories: uncertainty due to randomness
that due to fuzziness. The conventional methods of
