About this title

Synopsis:

Cole (science, technology, and society, Rutgers U.) challenges the US Environmental Protection Agency's risk-cost assessment of radon in private houses, and the policy of extensive testing and remediation based on it. He claims that neither the epidemiological nor other scientific findings warrant the alarm, and wonders who is benefiting. For the general reader. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

Review:

Splendid... Cole is so deft in analyzing the science and politics of radon that it is had to know whether to laugh or cry. (Nature)
