网友对Our Stolen Future: Are We Threatening Our Fertility, Intelligence, and Survival?--A Scientific Detective Story的评论
全英文的看起来很吃力不过内容很好。算是环境激素的启蒙读物。
I first became acquainted with Dianne Dumanoski in about 1997 when I heard her address the problem of persistent chemicals in the environment in a radio broadcast on our local public radio station KUOW. I recorded part of the broadcast. I recently came upon that old recording and listened to it again. I was amazed that there had not been more coverage in the media in the interim. This led me to search for more information online, leading me to find this book.
I find that the book is still an excellent source of information on the problems related to persistent chemicals in the environment. We continue to experience problems that can be directly related to these chemicals. In this book one can find an excellent historical discussion about how previously unexplained reproductive problems and behavioral deviations in the wild were related to these persistent chemicals that accumulate in the environment. It is my opinion that similar problems are now being observed in the general human population, not an unexpected result. We should have been working to reduce the introduction of these harmful chemicals a long time ago. Instead the problem has been ignored.
This book should have been a wake-up call to action. It is still relevant today, because it appears that we have yet to wake up.
This is a must-read for any person concerned with the health of the environment and the health of their own families. The sense of the book is that these harmful chemicals would be affecting future generation for many rears to come. We did not listen to the warning when the book first came out. Maybe it is not too late to get educated. It remains an open question whether it is too late to save the environment and our future generations.
The book treats this complicated problem in a way that anyone can understand. The detective work involved in investigating the problem is no less fascinating that that found in a Sherlock Holmes mystery. A fascinating read.
This book is an incredible read. I highly recommend it for anyone who is concerned about the environment and their own health. This book contains a lot of research, which contributes to its credibility, however it is far from your typical scientific book. It's a fascinating read for anyone, whether they have a background in biology or environmental science or not. I actually read it as part of an extra credit assignment for one of my college classes. My original intention was to skim the book and write a summary. I became so wrapped up in the book that I literally read it cover to cover - including the forward and the afterward. I later purchased my own copy. This book is both challenging and fascinating. Read it!
