Riassunto

A December 1998 workshop held in Noordwijkerhout, the Netherlands, sponsored by the Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC), redressed the oversight of not including invertebrates the majority of animals on Earth in concerns and debates on the health impacts of endocrine disruption due to exposure to chemicals in the environment. Five chapters introduce the major issues in invertebrate endocrinology; terminology; key findings; regulatory perspectives from North America, Europe, and Japan; and laboratory toxicity tests and field assessment, including measurement endpoints, and molecular and biochemical techniques. Supplemented by numerous tables and figures, an executive summary, and a helpful list of translated abbreviations. Member price is $60. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
