This book describes and outlines exposure scenarios of ionizing and non‑ionizing radiation in occupational and residential settings within the African continent, where technological developments and mining activities are the main sources of radiation exposure. To better understand these exposure scenarios, this book focusses on all exposure aspects of both ionizing and non‑ionizing radiation from an African perspective.
