Informationen zum Autor Dr John Taylor lectured in Physics before embarking on a career in the commercial nuclear power plant industry. During his career has worked on nuclear reactor physics design for marine plant, safety in design of commercial reactors and the safe design of all facets of nuclear fuel cycle facilities. Here he gained experience of safety assessment, accident consequence analysis and nuclear facility safety cases production methods eventually becoming an independent reviewer of safety submissions. Later, as a senior corporate manger for a leading UK Company, he was closely involved with the Corporate regulatory interface addressing safety assessment methods and analysis.

He worked in the UK and periodically overseas, particularly in the USA and South Africa. John Taylor continues to consult, particularly in nuclear, radiological, conventional safety and the development of safety management systems. He lectures extensively in safety, criticality, radiation physics and safety culture and works closely with university, industrial and overseas agencies as an authority on the theory and practice of safety culture. He has carried out safety culture missions independently in South Africa and with the International Atomic Energy Agency in Austria, Russia, China, South Korea, Ghana and Bulgaria. John has degrees in physics, applied nuclear science and economics.
