Chemical Exposure and Disease:The Professional and Layperson's Guide to Understanding Cause and Effect.Review By Richard AlexanderWritten by a physician-toxicologist after examining some 8000 patients over a 25 year span, Chemical Exposure and Disease is a must for every person asking the question, "Why?" Why did I get sick? Why is the cancer rate so high? Why was this child born with birth defects? Chemical Exposure and Disease by Janette D. Sherman, M.D., provides investigative and diagnostic techniques for the medical, legal and lay communities in an easy-to-read manner. The book gives case-reports for all body systems, from the central nervous system, pulmonary, gastro-intestinal to reproductive. The book covers inherently dangerous industries, including asbestos, plastics, construction, paints, automotive, and waste disposal. Pesticides are reviewed in depth, explaining the toxicology and giving valuable case reports. Examples of chemicals that cause endocrine-disruption, immunological dysfunction, neurological damage, cancer, and birth defects are discussed. Extensive bibliographic sources are provided, including historical references, dispelling the notion that "more studies are needed" before we can take action. Chemical Exposure and Disease is a must for medical and legal professionals, as well as consumers who want corrective action and prevention steps taken now. Available from Janette D.
