Ed. Neel, James V., William J. Schull. The Children of Atomic Bomb Survivors: A Genetic Study . Washington D. C., National Academy Press, 1991.
This is a collection of 13 papers, compiled by the National Academy of Sciences- National Research Council in the U.S., which discuss whether the mutations induced in the cells of persons exposed to radiation can affect their yet-to-be-born children. The researchers came to the conclusion that more than 45 years of research on the children of atomic bomb survivors in Hiroshima and Nagasaki shows that the genetic risks of radiation are less than what they expected. 米国科学アカデミーによる医学論文集。広島・長崎の被爆二世を対象にした45年間にわたる遺伝学的研究論文13編を収録。放射線被曝による細胞の変異が被爆者の子どもにどのような影響を与えたかについて論じ、遺伝学的なリスクは当初の予想より低いとしている。
