Jan Haaken talks with Prerna Gupta, contributing author to Making the Unseen Visible: Science and the Contested Histories of Radiation Exposure—a newly released collection of essays. The editors of the volume, Jacob Darwin Hamblin and Linda Richards, are faculty at Oregon State University and part of the Oregon State University Downwinders Project. Gupta talks about the guiding aims of the book and her own chapter which is based on her research on public attitudes about the risks posed by uranium mining and nuclear technologies. She is a Ph.D. student at the Institute for Resources, Environment and Sustainability at the University of British Columbia.
