Provides an introduction to the basic principles and methods of environmental epidemiology. Chapters are arranged in four sections covering nomenclature and the design and interpretation of epidemiological studies. Case studies of both organic and inorganic pollutants are included.
Developed from a symposium sponsored by the Division of Environmental Chemistry, Inc at the 203rd National Meeting of the American Chemical Society, San Francisco, California, April 5-10, 1992, this book provides an introduction to the basic principles and methods of environmental epidemiology. Chapters are arranged in four sections covering: nomenclature and the design and interpretation of epidemiological studies; toxicology and toxicological risk assessment; application of epidemiological methods in humans studies; and the unique constraints of epidemiolgic research. Case studies of both organic and inorganic pollutants demonstrate the application of the principles, and illustrate the most up-to-date techniques, current thinking and controversies.
