"Air Monitoring for Toxic Exposures" explains the procedures for evaluation potentially harmful exposures to people from hazardous materials, including chemicals, radon, and bioaerosols. The author provides practical information on how to perform air sampling, collect biological and bulk samples, evaluate dermal exposures, and determine the advantages and limitations of a given method. The original edition published in 1991 has been a valuable resource for Industrial Hygienists, safety professionals, environmental specialists, chemists and others involved in measuring airborne exposures to chemicals, microorganisms, and radon.However, much of the equipment-specific information is outdated and so the equipment described and illustrated in the book is either no longer available or does not represent state-of-the-art monitoring techniques. Additionally, the audience for the book can be increased to include public health specialists and emergency responders by adding chapters covering information monitoring during emergency response, including bio-terrorism agents such as anthrax.
