Contents Notes |
"Health Effects of Ambient Air Pollution aims to provide the reader with an overview of the health effects of air pollution in human subjects. The majority of the book is devoted to the discussion of the health effects of common wide-spread air pollutants regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency through National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The book reviews the sources and fate of common air pollutants in ambient air and researches the adverse effects of these outdoor and indoor air pollutants in 'in vivo' cell systems, animals, and humans."--Jacket. |
