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.
