SYNOPSIS
Why are we warned about some toxic spaces substances and not others? The essays in this volume consider the exposure of bodies in four countries in the form of nuclear radiation, industrial waste, pesticides and future biological warfare. Research shows that appeals to uncertainty have led to social inaction even when evidence stares us in the face.
