What Reviewers Are Saying
"What Dr. Smith outlines as an evidence-based approach is likely as relevant to other key toxic materials as it is to asbestos. His first chapter, devoted to reading and finding truth in the medical scientific literature, is instructive
in many fields. An understanding of the health effects of asbestos has remained as refractory as the mineral itself. I'll return to these pages many times, as much to understand how we have proceeded, as to review the specific health-related effects of asbestos." - J.
