Essentials of Environmental Health (Essential Public Health)

This edition did come very damaged, but for the price-it's expected.Overall, it does the job, so I'm pleased.

I've used this for 2 classes, one undergrad and one grad. I like that I was able to use it for more than one class and the information is still relevant. The third edition is available now.

This textbook is very thorough and filled with good images and figures. Was a great supplement to my professors lecture. Mine came in great shape and didn't take too much longer to get here than I had hoped.

I have all semester to get into it

I bought this book for a required college course and was very happy with it. It's a hard cover and well made. It was also way cheaper than the college bookstores or any website.

Typical used textbook. As described. :)

This is a text we used in my environmental health course. It is very simply written (not boring or overly academic) and well illustrated. The actual case studies supplement the text very well. There are also online resources that match the book.

This book is woefully out of date, especially when it comes to the field of endocrine disruption and environmental signaling. It's almost dangerous to ignore this subject, now that the science continues to build that long-term, low-dose exposure to many chemicals are dangerous the unborn, young children and people of all ages. I was horrified to read a citation in the book that claimed that most of the chemicals in the products we use everyday are harmless. In reality most of those chemicals have never been tested for safety. This is just poor research and writing on the author's part. For anyone interested in endocrine disruption, please look up the book Our Stolen Future. A simple Amazon search will lead you to many books, for this book commits a horrible mistake by leaving it out. You can also find Internet sites like Safer Chemicals Healthy Families or The Endocrine Disruptor Exchange.

Extremely useful for an EHP student

Bought it for class but barely used it

Excellent conditions
