Sodium Fast Reactors with Closed Fuel Cycle

"...I think this book will be useful for students and post-graduate students having specializations in various areas of SFR technology. ...Chapters include a lot of world experience related to SFR designing and construction and are well illustrated... I will be glad to have this book on my table."
-Yury Ashurko, State Scientific Centre of the Russian Federation - Institute for Physics and Power Engineering (SSC RF-IPPE)

"A comprehensive source book providing information about various aspects of fast reactors and their associated fuel cycles would be of significant value for experts, as well as for younger-generation professionals aspiring to take up challenging R&D programs in designing and building fast reactor systems. I am delighted that such a book on fast reactors has been made a reality by my colleagues, Dr. Baldev Raj, Dr. P. Chellapandi, and Dr. P.R. Vasudeva Rao. I congratulate them for their fine efforts in preparing this comprehensive treatise on this important subject."
-R.K. Sinha, Secretary, Department of Atomic Energy and Chairman, Atomic Energy Commission, Mumbai, India

"... provides authoritative information from a team that has recently built a fast reactor. ... covers the full fuel cycle for sodium-cooled fast reactors and includes valuable construction experience. ... a very important topic and the inclusion of the entire fuel cycle (including recycling) should make this book very valuable to the fast reactor professional community."
