Book Information

Hidden health dangers lurk in many of the seemingly innocent products we encounter every day - a tube of glue in a kitchen drawer, a bottle of bleach in the laundry room, a rayon scarf on a closet shelf, a brass knob on the front door, a wood plank on an out-door deck. It presents a picture not of one exceptional or corrutpt industry but, rather, of how run-of-the mill manufacturing processes and consumer marketing expose workers and the general public alike to toxic hazards.
