Devra Davis has lived through some of the worst pollution in history. This book is not hysteria, it is the factual reporting of the accumulated research and the recounting of the consistent political and corporate efforts to beat it down. From air pollution to chemical toxins, it will change your mind about some politicians and garner respect for the defiant scientists who stuck to their guns to bring about change.
