This text deals with atomic energy costing on three levels: patterns, parameters, and politicization. It provides an overview of some of the debates on the early pricing of atomic energy, and then goes on to examine economic costing and economic consequences. The issue of economic control of atomic energy by government, public sector monopoly, or private enterprise is also discussed. The book focuses on the parameters of profits and subsidies and interest and discount rates and how they affect cost-benefit appraisals of nuclear energy. The politicization of atomic energy costing is dealt with via a discussion of alternate agency theoretic and welfare aspects of atomic energy costing, and then there's a survey of the modern costing and regulation debates in the US and UK. The final chapters deal with a comparative analysis of atomic power and its regulation in the US, UK and Japan and the material, and attempts to derive some conclusions regarding the atomic energy costing debates.
