The Third Wave of Asbestos Disease
These 60 papers and 16 discussions convey the material presented at a conference on the public health problem posed by asbestos in place. Observations and risks are presented, including evidence from mesothelioma as a signal or sentinel event pointing to additional groups with asbestos exposure; how not to remove asbestos and how to remove it safely; when the general public is unlikely to be at risk and when it might be; priorities for asbestos abatement; and surveillance of building trades workers. Technical factors, such as the role of tremolite, fibre size, multiple exposures and in vitro and in vivo observations are considered, as are new findings of DNA and gene changes. This documentation of the scientific evidence connected with asbestos exposure should be a valuable reference for all concerned with the issue.
