==Health effects of low-level radiation==
* Chapter 6 "Fear of radiation, cancer, health, ALARA, cost" in [https://electrifyingourworld.com/?page_id=834 Electrifying our World, Robert Hargraves (2021)] a good summary of studies on the health effects of low-level radiation.
* ''Sources, Effects, and Risks of Ionizing Radiation'', [https://www.unscear.org/docs/publications/2019/UNSCEAR_2019_Report.pdf UNSCEAR_2019_Report], United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation.
* Chapter 5 "An Alternative to LNT" in [https://www.amazon.com/Why-Nuclear-Power-Been-Flop/dp/1098308964 Why Nuclear Power Has Been a Flop, Jack Devanney (2020)] Sigmoid No Threshold (SNT) is a better fit to the data. Also, this book has a good review of the history of LNT.
* The [https://gordianknotbook.com/download/green-table-documentation Green Table], Jack Devanney, 2024. An up to date compilation of radiation exposure incidents, both high and low, and their health effects {downloaded 2024-09-18}.  
* UNSCEAR (2019) United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation, [https://www.unscear.org/docs/publications/2019/UNSCEAR_2019_Report.pdf SOURCES, EFFECTS AND RISKS OF IONIZING RADIATION]  
* [https://www.mn.uio.no/fysikk/tjenester/kunnskap/straling/radon-and-lung-cancer.pdf ''Radon, Lung Cancer, and the LNT Model''], 2016 review by the Biophyics and Medical Physics group at University of Oslo, Norway.
* Sponsler, R. and Cameron, J.R. (2005) '[http://www.probeinternational.org/low-dose-NSWS-shipyard.pdf Nuclear shipyard worker study] (1980–1988): a large cohort exposed to low-dose-rate gamma radiation’, Int. J. Low Radiation, Vol. 1, No. 4, pp.463–478. "The high-dose workers demonstrated significantly lower circulatory, respiratory, and all-cause mortality than did unexposed workers. Mortality from all cancers combined was also lower in the exposed cohort."
* [https://hps.org/hpspublications/historylnt/episodeguide.html ''The History of the Linear No-Threshold (LNT) Model''], videos from the Health Physics Society, accessed July 2024.
* Moss, D. (2013) [http://taiwan-apt-cancer-data-analysis.blogspot.com 'An Analysis of Cancer Incidence in Taiwan Apartment Residents Subjected to Low Dose Radiation'] interesting because this analysis of the data contradicts what the original authors concluded.

"At cumulative dosages below the order of 1000 skeletal average rads no clinically significant radiobiological injury has yet been observed in the M.I.T. series over a time span of 40–50 yr in more than 500 persons."
* ''SNT, An Alternative to LNT'', Chapter 5 in [https://www.amazon.com/Why-Nuclear-Power-Been-Flop/dp/1098308964 Why Nuclear Power Has Been a Flop], Jack Devanney (2020). Proposal for a Sigmoid No Threshold (SNT) model that is a better fit to the data.
