Book Description

The Essentials of Medical Geology (PDF) provides an overview of the applicable techniques and fundamental concepts that are necessary to address issues pertaining to environmental and public health. It is broken down into 4 primary parts or sections. The first part of this article will discuss the principles of environmental biology, as well as the natural and anthropogenic sources of health factors that have an effect on health, and it will also demonstrate essential biogeochemical transformations. The second part of this article examines the geological processes that have an effect on the amount of specific elements that humans are exposed to, such as arsenic, fluorine, radon, selenium, and iodine. In the third section, the methodologies and ideas of toxicology, pathology, and epidemiology are discussed. These are the disciplines that form the basis for examinations into the impact that exposure to naturally occurring components have on human health. In the fourth section, we present a toolbox of several analytical methodologies that can be used in medical geology studies and environmental study.
