The two volumes comprising the Third Edition of the Handbook of Environmental Health and Safety have been completely revised and expanded to reflect new developments and discoveries in environmental health and safety. The volumes provide environmental health professionals, environmental managers, safety professionals, students, and the public with a basis for understanding the interactions between humans and the environment and how such interactions affect the health and welfare of individuals. Each volume includes a new chapter on instrumentation, state-of-the-art graphics, and a comprehensive index and bibliography. Together, these two volumes make up an ideal reference set or textbook set.
Focusing on those factors that are generally associated with the internal environment of structures, Volume I defines and discusses issues related to food protection and safety, food technology, insect and rodent control, pesticides, housing, injuries, indoor air pollution, hospitals, nursing homes, recreational facilities, and occupational hazards. Volume I includes discussions on major topics such as the ecosystem, energy, environmental chemicals, physiology, toxicology, epidemiology, risk assessment and management, carcinogens, and environmental law.
