Everyone everywhere now carries a dizzying array of chemical contaminants, the by-products of modern industry and innovation, that contribute to a host of developmental deficits and health problems in ways just now being understood.

Almost everything we encounter--from soap to soup cans, computers to clothing--contributes to a chemical load unique to each of us. Scientists studying the phenomenon refer to it as chemical body burden, and in \u003ci\u003eThe Body Toxic\u003c\/i\u003e, the investigative journalist Nena Baker explores the many factors that have given rise to this condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNena Baker\u003c\/b\u003e is a former staff writer for \u003ci\u003eThe Arizona Republic \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eOregonian.\u003c\/i\u003e Her award-winning investigation of Nike's Indonesian factories led to numerous improvements for workers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 8.4 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 21, 2009\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748742398240,"sku":"9780865477469","price":23.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/3192a2fe20e4da959abb71f085af75a4.webp?v=1779915006","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-body-toxic-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
