This book examines the underlying concepts, the history of environmental health, and the key factors that affect public health including: Air pollution Water contamination Industrial hazards Agricultural hazards The increasing impact of global environmental issues is explored as they affect countries throughout the world.Series Editors: Rosalind Plowman and Nicki Thorogood.
