Medicine: Beyond the Science
5. "Nuclear Energy and Health: A Final Warning"- Dr. Robert Peter Gale
The KGB had a dossier on him, he attended the funeral for a Soviet Head of State, and as an American he was asked by the Soviet Union to coordinate medical relief to the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. The life of Dr. Robert Peter Gale sounds like it should be a movie, in fact his accounts at Chernobyl were made into a film, in which he was portrayed by Golden Globe winning actor Jon Voight. Having published more than 1,000 scientific articles and over 20 books, his contributions to the medical field is well established, but we also learn of his compassion towards his patients and pride he takes in his students. This is Medicine: Beyond the Science.
