Brings home the meaning of poverty in people's lives as it examines both their access to--and their lack of--health care. It offers both health workers and activists a wealth of practical information on advocacy for the poor. Dicussion questions at the end of each chapter and appendices on Internet resources for the study of poverty and on a proposed government program insruct teachers how to foster social awareness among their students.

"Pandora's Poison presents a solution to one of the most insidious environmental problems of our time: the global build up to toxic chemicals. In a through and accessible analysis, biologist Joe Thornton shows how global organochlorine pollution is already contributing to infertility, immune suppression, cancer, and developmental disorders in humans and wildlife." "Articulating principles for a new environmental strategy, Thornton shows that the only practical solution is to take global action on broad classes of hazardous chemicals and the processes that produce them, starting with organochlorines. He lays out a democratically controlled program to replace the production and use of chlorine gas and its derivatives with safer, effective, and economically feasible alternatives, which are already available for the majority of chlorine uses. Pandora's Poison promises to revolutionize the debate over pollution, health, and the role of science in public policy."--Jacket.
