| Abstract
|
:
|
"Environmental Health: From Global to Local offers students a comprehensive introduction to environmental health. It provides an overview of methods and paradigms used in this field, ranging from ecology to epidemiology, from toxicology to environmental psychology, and from genetics to ethics to religion." "Environmental Health: From Global to Local is an ideal starting point for undergraduate and graduate students majoring in environmental health. It is also an ideal text for students in other public health specialties who want to learn about environmental health and for students of environmental studies and environmental sciences who want to learn about the human health aspects of the environment."--Jacket.
