| Abstract
|
:
|
"This book is a comprehensive examination of pesticide use, pesticide harm, and alternatives to harmful pesticides. Levine highlights the role of farming, because a substantial majority - 70 percent or more annually - of pesticides are applied in agricultural uses, thereby making their way into the food chain and into the water supply."--Jacket.
