Product Description

From its "accident" at Bhopal by its Union Carbide company to Agent Orange, from Napalm to Plutonium, Dow Chemical has been at the center of many of the worst chemical disasters in history. In this explosive exposÃ© of the chemical giant, Jack Doyle reviews the legacy and the future of this gigantic chemical octopus.

A comprehensive overview of the company's dirty deeds from dioxin to Greenwashing, Doyle provides an indispensable history with a grave warning for what's up next.

The second book in the Environ-mental Health Fund Series.
