"The trouble is that, today [2001], the widespread and obvious pollution of the industrial revolution has given way to less visible, but often more insidious, incidences of pollution in the workplace and in the general environment. When we look back on those times, we assume that people could never be subject to such risks again. We rarely understand that they--we--still are." (ECOLOGIST) The author carefully examines how chemicals in the workplace impose a threat to human life as well as to the environment.
