These documents catalog potential environmental, toxicological, ecological, or other harms resulting from a particular hazard, from chemical spills to construction projects to dangerous workplaces. They turn on a number of variables, of which the most significant is the degree of human exposure to the hazardous agent or process. Human and Ecological Risk Assessment combines the virtues of a textbook and reference work to introduce and analyze these vital documents. Beginning with the foundational theory of human health risk assessment, it then supplies case studies and detailed analysis illustrating the practice of producing risk assessment documents. Fully updated and authored by leading authorities in the field, the result is an indispensable work. Readers of the second edition of Human and Ecological Risk Assessment will also find: Over 40 entirely new case studies reflecting the latest in risk assessment practice Detailed discussion of hazards including air emissions, contaminated food and soil, hazardous waste sites, and many more Case studies from multiple countries to reflect diverse international standards Human and Ecological Risk Assessment is ideal for professionals and advanced graduate students in toxicology, industrial hygiene, occupational medicine, environmental science, and all related subjects. 4aChemical and Environmental Health and Safety 4aEnvironmental & Occupational Health991612 4aGeneral & Introductory Chemical Engineering99161300aEcological hazards; environmental hazards; occupational hazards; tire wear particles; talcum powder; chromium; cobalt; hip implant particulates; hazardous waste sites; food and water contamination; soil contamination; radiological hazards; Kenneth Feinberg1 aPaustenbach, Dennis J.4edt9916141 aFeinberg, Kenneth4edt99161508iPrinted edition:z978111955110240uhttps://doi.org/10.1002/9781119742975aWiley Online Library40uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/action/showBook?doi=10.1002%2F9781119742975aWiley Online Library423Cover Imageuhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/cms/asset/e850e39a-601b-417c-8f0a-71a580b81581/9781119742975.cover.gifaWiley Online Library c67016d67016
