Still in the Making --Notes --IndexFrom the early 1980's, the U.S. environmental breast cancer movement has championed the goal of eradicating the disease by emphasizing the importance of reducing—even eliminating exposure to chemicals and toxins. From Pink to Green chronicles the movement's disease prevention philosophy from the beginning. Challenging the broader cultural milieu of pink ribbon symbolism and breast cancer "awareness" campaigns, this movement has grown from a handful of community-based organizations into a national entity, shaping the cultural, political, and public health landscape. Much of the activists' everyday work revolves around describing how the so called "cancer industry" downplays possible environmental links to protect their political and economic interests and they demand that the public play a role in scientific, policy, and public health decision-making to build a new framework of breast cancer prevention. From Pink to Green successfully explores the intersection between breast cancer activism and the environmental health sciences, incorporating public and scientific debates as well as policy implications to public health and environmental agendas.Critical issues in health and medicine.EnvironmentalismUnited StatesBreastCancerPreventionBreastCancerEnvironmental aspectsBreastCancerUnited StatesHistory21st centuryBreastCancerUnited StatesHistory20th centuryEnvironmentalismBreastCancerPrevention.BreastCancerEnvironmental aspects.BreastCancerHistoryBreastCancerHistory362.196/99449362.19699449Ley Barbara L.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1474979DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910790286103321From Pink to Green3688941UNINA01306nam2 2200301 i 450 VAN0001178220240806100249.62488-15-08802-420030127d1998 |0itac50 baitaIT|||| |||||ˆ1: ‰Profilo storicoCarlo TrigiliaBolognaIl mulinoc1998344 p.23 cm.001VAN000117792001 Sociologia economicaCarlo Trigilia210 BolognaIl mulino1998-215 volumi.23 cm.1Sociologia economicaVANC006333FIBolognaVANL000003TrigiliaCarloVANV00429889268Il Mulino <editore>VANV107886650ITSOL20240906RICABIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI GIURISPRUDENZAIT-CE0105VAN00BIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI SCIENZE POLITICHEIT-CE0182VAN04VAN00011782BIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI SCIENZE POLITICHE04CONS VI.A.a.16 04OMA934 20171002 BIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI GIURISPRUDENZA00CONS XX.Ch.15 (1) 00 22286 20030127 Profilo storico38237UNICAMPANIA
