Health Effects from Hazardous Waste Sites Industrial

Health Effects from Hazardous Waste Sites by Julian B. Andelman and Dwight W. Underhill.  Hardcover book (no dust jacket) published by Lewis Publishers 1987, 294 pages with a few black and white diagrams/illustrations. EX LIBRARY.  Assessing the adverse human health effects of chemical exposure from waste disposal sites and other point sources is at best difficult. But with the thousands of hazardous waste sites in the United States and abroad, it is necessary that we become more knowledgeable about this ubiquitous prob­lem. This book should provide a useful orientation on the nature, risks, methodologies, and limitations in assessing possible human health expo­sures and risks from hazardous waste sites.

The five principal parts of this book are:

Hazardous Wastes: Scope of the Problem

Assessment of Exposure to Hazardous Wastes

Determining Human Health Effects

Role of Social Groups in Defining Health Risks at Waste Sites
