      abstract = {This book reviews the active faults around nuclear power  plants in Japan and recommends an optimal method of nuclear  power regulation controlled by the Nuclear Regulation  Authority of Japan. The active faults around nuclear power  plants have been underestimated in Japan since the latter  half of the 20th century. However, based on the lessons  learned from the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident,  the book sheds light on why the risks of active faults were  underestimated, and discusses the optimal scientific method  of assessing those risks. Further, the author shares his  experiences in the new standard for nuclear regulation  creation team and in the active fault survey at the Nuclear  Regulation Authority of Japan. This book is a valuable  resource for students, researchers, academic and  policy-makers, as well as non-experts interested in nuclear  safety.},
