Nutrition and Chemical Toxicity
ISBN: 9780471974536 / Angielski / Twarda / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the last decade the role of nutrition in toxicity and carcinogenicity has taken on greater importance. It has been recognized that food components, particularly of plant origin, have the potential to protect against cancer and heart disease, and these topics have received wide media attention. This volume discusses the mechanisms and current thinking of how nutritional status influences the way we respond to chemical insults and its role in the aetiology of disease. It takes a mechanistic approach to how dietary factors are related to toxicology and chemical carcinogenesis.

ISBN: 9780786408276 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Readers drawn to Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, Laurie Garrett's The Coming Plague, or Theo Colburn's Our Stolen Future will appreciate this work by Thomas Kerns as well. The growing epidemics of chemically induced illnesses from long-term, low-dose exposure to toxicants in both developed and developing nations are being studied by serious researchers. Questions are being raised as to how societies will deal with these new problems: Kerns's book is the first to directly address the ethical dimension of managing environmental health and ubiquitous toxicants (such as solvents, pesticides, and...

The Ortho Side of PCBs: Occurrence and Disposition
ISBN: 9780792385417 / Angielski / Twarda / 269 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. PCBs have captured the attention of scientists, journalists and the public for three decades, but during most of that time attention was focused on a small number of the 209 possible chlorobiphenyls. Recent work has implicated many of the forgotten and/or unstudied congeners as neuro-endocrine active and potential developmental toxicants. This interest has created a need for information regarding the non-dioxin-like' PCBs. The ortho Side of PCBs: Occurrence and Disposition integrates historical information, analytical interpretations, and global concepts with recent...

Monitoring the Worker for Exposure and Disease: Scientific, Legal, and Ethical Considerations in the Use of Biomarkers
ISBN: 9780801839894 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Human monitoring as a supplement to or replacement for environmental monitoring of toxic substances in the workplace has become an increasingly important issue within the last decade, leading to Congressional hearings, governmental studies, and scientific conferences around the world. Just as the purposes for undertaking human monitoring are diverse and sometimes conflicting, so too are the concerns-- medical, legal, and ethical-- such testing has generated.
The authors begin by providing precise characterizations of the types of monitoring now in use and a clear account of the legal basis... Human monitoring as a supplement to or replacement for environmental monitoring of toxic substances in the workplace has become an increasingly import...

Old Paint: A Medical History of Childhood Lead-Paint Poisoning in the United States to 1980
ISBN: 9780813529875 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Old Paint documents the history of lead-paint poisoning in the United States and the evolving responses of public health officials and the lead-paint industry to this hazard up to 1980, by which time lead had been banned in gasoline and paint. Peter C. English traces lead poisoning from a rare, but acute problem confined to a small group of children to the discovery by the end of the 1940s of the dangers of the crumbling lead-painted interiors of inner-city dwellings. He draws on a wide range of primary materials not only to illuminate our understanding of how this health hazard changed over...
