Description
Hazards of the Job explores the roots of modern environmentalism in the early-twentieth-century United States. It was in the workplace of this era, argues Christopher Sellers, that our contemporary understanding of environmental health dangers first took shape. Sellers traces the creation of a viable industrial hygiene expertise, focused initially on lead and other poisonings among workers, alongside the controversies that it addressed and roused.
