The status of technology of nuclear power reactors in 1959 is reviewed. General research and engineering development activities are discussed. The reactors considered include the pressurized water, boiling water, light water moderated superheat, organic cooled, sodium graphite, gas cooled enriched fuel, gas cooled natural uranium, fast breeder, aqueous homogeneous, and heavy water. Power costs are compared with the cost of power from conventional plants. (C.H.
