Synopsis

Air Quality Issues examines the pressing challenges of urban air pollution, emphasizing the critical need for effective environmental monitoring and strategies to safeguard public health. The book argues for a data-driven approach, highlighting the sources and composition of urban air pollutants, and correlating these pollutants with human health outcomes. Did you know that air pollution can lead to respiratory illnesses and cardiovascular diseases? The book provides a historical overview of air pollution incidents that shaped current environmental regulations and scientific understanding, setting the stage for a comprehensive analysis.

 
Beginning with atmospheric chemistry and toxicology, the book systematically builds an understanding of the interactions between air pollutants and human physiology. It analyzes primary and secondary sources of air pollution, assesses environmental monitoring methodologies, and reviews epidemiological evidence. The book stands out for its practical approach, avoiding sensationalism while presenting objective evidence to inform decision-making in urban environments.

 
It will be useful to students, public health professionals, urban planners, policymakers, and concerned citizens.

    Breaking the Medicine Monopolies is a lawyer's personal narrative of the events that led to the widespread use of low-cost generic drugs and the current drug price crisis. 
     
     
     
    Breaking the Medicine Monopolies is a personal narrative about Alfred Engelberg's fifty years of legal work in the drug industry. He takes you inside the mysterious world of patents to provide a basic understanding of how drug makers have gamed the laws governing brand and generic competition, misused patents to prolong monopolies, and delayed generic competition on old drugs instead of focusing on discovering new ones. In this book, Engelberg provides listeners with an understanding of how the growing use of low-cost generic drugs led to the highest prices in the world for new drugs, and how middlemen in the drug distribution chain have exploited a lack of price transparency in order to earn excessive profits. Breaking the Medicine Monopolies is a must-listen for anyone who wants to understand how ill-considered policy decisions and an inept patent system led to unaffordable prices for new drugs, and what can be done to correct the problem.
