This important book looks at a class of chemicals that accumulate in the food chain and disrupt endocrine systems, implicating many common plastics and other industries in a problem of potentially devastating proportions. The book, and the further research that it will surely inspire, has had an impact on manufacturing, including the manufacture of building materials such as PVC.
