Covers public health policy, the abilities of the EPA, and the effectiveness of CERCLA. This book addresses why: hazardous waste issues must be examined, risk management must extend beyond waste site clean up, disease prevention must be a priority, interagency partnership is mandatory, and the best technology must be applied.

The book describes both current and emerging environmental hazards to human and related ecosystem health and discusses policies and their public health foundations. Public health concerns are presented as their nexus with ecosystem concerns. The book is written from a global perspective of environment hazards.
