Environmental Health Risks and Public Policy
How democratic societies discover and deal with such health hazards is the theme of Environmental Health Risks and Public Policy.

A Citizen's Guide to Air Pollution
Volume 2 in the series Environmental Damage and Control in Canada, sponsored by the Canadian Society of Zoologists, offers guidelines of especial interest to teachers, citizens' groups, businessmen, physicians, and engineers.
