Book Description

This revised and updated edition of Essentials of Medical Geology (PDF) examines the fundamental concepts and operational tools that are necessary to address concerns pertaining to environmental and public health. It is broken down into 4 primary parts or sections. In the first section, we will cover the principles of environmental biology, as well as the natural and anthropogenic sources of health components that have an impact on health, and we will also highlight important biogeochemical changes. The second section discusses the geological processes that have an effect on human exposure to specific elements, such as radon, fluorine, selenium, arsenic, and iodine. Investigations investigating the effects of exposure to naturally occurring components on human health can be aided by the concepts and methodologies presented in the third section. These are drawn from the fields of pathology, toxicology, and epidemiology. The final lesson provides a toolkit full of analytical strategies that can be used for medical geology investigations as well as environmental study.

The first edition of Essentials of Medical Geology was published in 2005, and it has since been honored with three important awards. The book is widely utilized as a textbook and a reference book in the domains of geology and medicine, where it has been hailed as an important publication for both of those disciplines.

The authors and editors of this revised and updated 2013th edition have brought the content, which had progressed significantly since 2005 and included two new chapters on public health and agriculture and health, up to date in preparation for this edition's publication. This revised volume can now continue to be used as a textbook and reference book for all those who are interested in this significant topic and its influences on the health and wellness of many thousands upon thousands of people all over the world.

Review

“The interdisciplinary, global study of health and disease in animals and humans related with the geological background of a location is known as medical geology… The numbers are up to date and easy to understand. Environmental geoscientists, medical experts, epidemiologists, and those in charge of making decisions will find the material to be both approachable and engaging. It is the most important electronic reference book for the industry, and it is also suitable for use as a textbook for classes at the undergraduate and doctoral levels. In conclusion, it is strongly recommended. students in their upper years of college up through professionals and practitioners.” — M. E. Lenczewski; Choice; Vol. 51 (8); April; 2014
