Summary

Is everyday exposure to detergent chemicals linked to cancer? Cancer Risk Factors examines this concerning possibility, synthesizing epidemiological studies and public health data to explore potential connections between long-term exposure and cancer incidence. The book uniquely focuses on the cumulative impact of low-level chemical exposures from common household products, challenging conventional assumptions about chemical safety and demonstrating the importance of understanding dose-response relationships. For example, while high doses of certain chemicals are known carcinogens, the book asks if sustained, lower-level exposures also pose a significant threat. This book is structured to introduce the main chemical classes found in detergents, review key epidemiological studies, and explore the biological plausibility of the associations through animal and in vitro experiments. A valuable resource for public health professionals and concerned consumers, Cancer Risk Factors offers a comprehensive, evidence-based analysis. It progresses from detailing the rise of synthetic detergents and toxicology principles, through analyses of cohort and case-control studies, to integrating molecular biology and toxicology findings.

  • The Miracle of the Black Leg - Notes on Race Human Bodies and the Spirit of the Law - cover

    The Miracle of the Black Leg -...

    Beginning with a jaw-dropping rumination on a centuries-old painting featuring a white man with a Black man's leg surgically attached (with the expired Black leg-donor in the foreground), contracts law scholar and celebrated journalist Patricia J. Williams uses the lens of the law to take on core questions of identity, ethics, and race. 
 
 
 
With her trademark elegant prose and critical legal studies wisdom, Williams brings to bear a keen analytic eye and a lawyer's training to chapters exploring the ways we have legislated the ownership of everything from body parts to gene sequences—and the particular ways in which our laws in these areas isolate nonnormative looks, minority cultures, and out-of-the-box thinkers. 
 
 
 
At the heart of "Wrongful Birth" is a lawsuit in which a white couple who use a sperm bank sue when their child "comes out Black." And "Hot Cheeto Girl" examines the way that algorithms give rise to new predictive categories of human assortment, layered with market-inflected cages of assigned destiny. 
 
 
 
The Miracle of the Black Leg offers a brilliant meditation on the tricky place where law, science, ethics, and cultural slippage collide.
