Synthetic Planet: Chemical Politics and the Hazards of Modern Life Paperback - 2003 - 1st Edition

by Monica J. Casper (Editor)


From the publisher

This timely collection of original essays traces the migration of synthetic chemicals from the laboratory to the factory and then into the environment, bodies and communities. Turning our attention to the impact these chemicals have on our ecosystems, human health, social organization and political processes, the contributors break new ground by focusing on the production and distribution of these potentially hazardous agents themselves rather than just detailing their effects.

First line

Contemporary Japan and particularly its cities have embraced the chemical age as ardently as any society in the world.
