"Maxwell's Environmental Health takes a unique approach to presenting Environmental Health. Rather than organizing topics around the traditional regulatory fields (air and water pollution, hazardous wastes, radiation, etc.), this book is structured around the choices we make as individuals and societies that result in environmental health hazards. Hence the subtitle: "How We Live in the World"--
