Book
"Allergy is an escalating issue - particularly in the western world, where an increasing number of natural and man-made chemicals are found in our everyday environment - and where allergic sensitivity to these chemicals are found in our everyday environment - and where allergic sensitivity to these chemicals is on the increase. In the USA alone, allergic rhinitis (hayfever) affects 35 million people, leading to the loss of three and a half million workdays and two million school days a year. In line with this increase in allergy has been an increase in research and a proliferation of self-help groups, pressure groups, charities and societies, dedicated to helping sufferers. Bringing together the latest findings on allergy in an accessible format, and containing over 4000 entries, this book should be a valuable source of reference for students in the field of immunology, health sciences and occupational health, as well as concerned members of the public."--Synopsis (amazon.com)
