Environmentally Induced Disorders Sourcebook: Basic Information About Diseases and Syndromes Linked to Exposure to Pollutants and Other Substances in ... Such As Lead, (Health Reference Series) - Hardcover
Synopsis
With news of "sick" buildings (due to such factors as asbestos insulation and lead paint in older buildings, and formaldehyde-treated carpets, and fungus trapped inside sealed windows in newer ones); the spiraling rate of asthma linked with air pollution; and mutating E.- coli bacteria contaminating the food supply, we find ourselves alarmingly wondering whether any environment provides a safe haven. Even seemingly pristine wilderness may harbor pesticides used for forest management and giardia bacteria in waterways. Physicians interested in environmental medicine address toxin sources, their disease correlates (e.g. Gulf War syndrome, cancers, and respiratory problems), and potential solutions for the general reader. Surprisingly, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is missing from the discussion of immune disorders. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
