No customer reviews yet ISBN 9780387730370

This book is the result of an EU-funded project (EU emblem to appear on cover) on planning, implementing, and evaluating health promotion activities in the workplace. It aims to address occupational risks and hazards that are specific to women, or that women are more likely to encounter. The book begins with methodology on health promotion in the workplace, followed by chapters on several health topics particularly important to women. The approach taken by the authors bears in mind that women have a dual role in society, especially in health matters, as they greatly influence the health habits of their family, thus awareness-raising and prevention activities specifically targeting women are a fundamental factor in health promotion for the whole population.

Air Pollution and Health
Concern about the impact of air pollution has led governments and local authorities across the world to regulate, among other things, the burning of fossil fuels, industrial effluence, cigarette smoke, and aerosols. This legislation has often followed dramatic findings about the impact of pollution on human health. At the same time there have been significant developments in our ability to detect and quantify pollutants and a proliferation of urban and rural air pollution networks to monitor levels of atmospheric contamination.<br><b>Air Pollution and Health</b> is the first fully comprehensive and current account of air pollution science and it impact on human health. It ranges in scope from meteorology, atmospheric chemistry, and particle physics to the causes and scope of allergic reactions and respiratory, cardiovascular, and related disorders. The book has substantial international coverage and includes sections on cost implications, risk assessment, regulation, standards, and information networks. The multidisciplinary approach and the wide range of issues covered makes this an essential book for all concerned with monitoring and regulating air pollution as well as those concerned with its impact on human health.
