The bestseller list shows that our readers are interested in publications on a wide range of subjects,” said Nicola Gulley, Head of the IAEA’s Publishing Section.

The IAEA’s scientific and technical publications range from books to serial publications and technical documents. Around 100 titles are published each year. Many of these are available in official languages other than English and in the first half of the year, 26 scientific and technical publications were translated to Arabic, Chinese, French, Russian and Spanish, as part of the IAEA’s commitment to providing multilingual access.

All of the publications can be accessed and downloaded from the IAEA website
