This timely collection of original essays traces the migration of synthetic chemicals from the laboratory to the factory and then into the environment, bodies and communities. Turning our attention to the impact these chemicals have on our ecosystems, human health, social organization and political processes, the contributors break new ground by focusing on the production and distribution of these potentially hazardous agents themselves rather than just detailing their effects.
Quite OK introductory kind of book... although it doesn't go deep into anything, some of the exercises are rather interesting :P but if one wants to study the topics with more depth, this book is absolutely too simple...
