Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to put the development of the fast breeder and its deployment into the perspective of the current energy problem. This appears to be necessary as the early development stages of the fast breeder took place when the world looked quite different. Also, more and more there appears to be a widespread misinterpretation of its features and capabilities. But before we examine the fast breeder, it is appropriate to identify a few features of the general energy problem as we see it today.
