Description

Deborah V. Ortiz (ed.). Molds are the focus of increasing health concern. Inhalation of mold can cause human toxic effects such as fatigue & nausea, exacerbates immunologic reactions such as asthma & eye irritation, & can cause infections. The powerful health effects, broad exposure, & lack of standards have generated thousands of California torts. Molds may generate more litigation than asbestos. Recent high profile cases of mold infestation & the rising number of buildings with mold problems have generated significant concern in the public health community. Covers: overview of molds; molds & their human health implications; & adequacy of current institutional responses to molds.
