This book focuses on uncertainty insights and lessons from engineering with particular emphasis on civil nuclear power. This chapter presents a specific nuclear power generation technology (the UK Advanced Gas-cooled ReactorAdvanced Gas-Cooled Reactor, or AGR). The UK AGR is chosen because it illustrates well the ideas to be presented later in the book and because it is a mature and well-understood technology.
