520 | $aA world awash in little understood chemicals tragically harms adults and children alike. Laws keep health agencies in the dark about toxicants; slow, well motivated research hampers protections; and strenuous vested opposition exacerbates the harm. How science is used in the tort law can facilitate or frustrate redress of harm. This book recommends better approaches. -- Provided by publisher. | |
