How does a person who lives in a wood framed house in the suburbs survive a nuclear war, especially if they don’t have a basement? Turns out, the crazy advice to get into the interior rooms of your house and shelter underneath the mattress isn’t so nuts after all. You don’t need a fallout shelter to survive and you may only have to stay inside to avoid lethal radiation poisoning.
How is this possible? A highly overlooked defense against radiation is the inverse square law. Basically, if you can get inside and 10 feet away from the radiation outside, the dose you will be exposed to will be only 1%. This is why you’re told to get into the center of a building. If the radiation level is low enough, even sheltering in the center of a joisted masonry or wood framed slab on grade house can be effective.
Major cities with metropolitan populations of one million or more are the likely targets for nuclear weapons. The good news is that radioactive nuclear fallout isn’t likely to be as widespread or intense as popular media and culture portrays it to be, or outdated civil defense documents show, this book could encourage and ensure millions to survive.

—What likely nuclear targets are how to calculate your risk.

—How to take advantage of the inverse square law.
