Wayne Reynolds book - short synopsis at:

Personally I found his book to be very enlightening.
Sure was.
Drove down to Jervis Bay with family and went out to the reactor site.
Foundations still visible.
If Gorton had his way, things would have been very different, and perhaps not in a bad way either.
