Written by experts in the field, The Chemistry of Environmental Tobacco Smoke: Composition and Measurement, Second Edition compiles data on the properties of Environmental Tobacco Smoke (ETS) and on concentrations of its constituents in indoor air. The authors focus on common natural indoor environments and environments associated with chronic exposure. They stress measurement methods and competing sources of indoor air contaminants commonly attributed to ETS.

In response to rapidly accumulating evidence that environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure causes disease beyond lung cancer & respiratory effects in children, the Calif. Environmental Protection Agency undertook a comprehensive assessment of the total range of health effects correlated with exposure to ETS. Chapters: impact of ETS on the health of Californians; exposure measurement & prevalence; developmental toxicity I: perinatal manifestations; developmental toxicity II: postnatal manifestations; reproductive effects; respiratory health effects; carcinogenic effects; & cardiovascular effects. Dozens of tables & figures.
