Exposure Science in the 21st Century: A Vision and A Strategy investigates the contact of humans or other organisms with those agents (that is, chemical, physical, and biologic stressors) and their fate in living systems. The concept of exposure science has been instrumental in helping us understand how stressors affect human and ecosystem health, and in efforts to prevent or reduce contact with harmful stressors. In this way exposure science has played an integral role in many areas of environmental health, and can help meet growing needs in environmental regulation, urban and ecosystem planning, and disaster management."--Publisher's description.Health risk assessmentEnvironmental healthPollutionEnvironmental aspectsHealth risk assessment.Environmental health.PollutionEnvironmental aspects.362.1National Research Council (U.S.).Board on Environmental Studies and Toxicology,National Research Council (U.S.).Division on Earth and Life Studies,MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789363003321Exposure science in the 21st century3788892UNINA
