EXCELLENT RESOURCE FOR PREPARATION!
This book was extremely helpful in my preparation for the Haz Mat Awareness and Operations Exams. Even though not all of the questions from the test bank came from the exam prep, it was a great reference point. I would highly recommend this to anyone planning to take these exams!

Margaret-Ann Armour
CRC
, 1996

Much progress has been made and continues to be made in this area. However, the disposal of relatively small quantities of a large variety of chemical wastes generated, for example, in school, college, and university laboratories, in hospital pharmacies and in research, analytical, and quality control ...

A much needed reference book for special response teams
Although in its third edition, it only gets better and becomes a more valuable reference book for first responders involved in all levels of Hazmat preparedness, response, mitigation and/or recovery. A big thank you to the authors!!!

Very good....for a textbook!!!
I needed this book for a Hazardous Materials Technician Course that I am taking. Having read several firefighting textbooks over the years, I expected this one to be boring and uninteresting. I was pleasantly suprised that it was fairly easy reading and it kept my attention pretty well. I did not dread reading it...which I think is pretty good for a book like this. I would recommend this book ...

The best hazardous weather textbook available (Spring 2008).
As an earth and atmospheric science professor who specializes in natural hazards, I've seen probably every text available on this subject. For atmospheric hazards in particular, this is the best textbook I've used. It is easily accessible to second year meteorology undergraduates, and could even be somewhat useful in a graduate course. Although the text emphasizes the meteorological science of ...

Pure Fun
Now that Christy's second book, Suspicious Minds, is out; Hazardous Duty is a must read. Follow it closely by the second book in the series. You will be anxiouly awaiting the third. Gabby St. Claire seems always to be in the wrong place at the wrong time or vice-versa depending upon your point of view. She's a modern day cross between Lucille Ball and Mary Tyler Moore. A totally entertaining ...

Warning: Psychiatry Can Be Hazardous to Your Mental Health

Exposes the Myth of Psychiatry
Some of the psychiatrists or psychiatrists in training that have reviewed this book are sadly influenced by the ideologies and pressupositions of their industry. The fact is, science has never proven that there is such a thing as a non-organic mental illness. The reason why people behave the way they do and have a variety of symptoms is far more complex than "they are lacking some serotonin." ...

A Powerful, Necessary book
I have read about two-thirds of this book and must stop to send copies to my friend and to my daughter. General Singlaub's experiences and insights show the pattern in all the seemingly unrelated events between WWII and Viet Nam (that's as far as I've gotten), events that affected us all. I have been angry, amazed, amused, impressed and proud as I've read this book. I agree with the other ...

I wish I had read this book years ago...
I wish I had read this book years ago... Actually, I accidentally discovered that I was gluten-sensitive a few years before this book was published. I embarked on a low-carb diet -- but not all at once. I was keeping a very detailed food diary, and cutting down/out selected items gradually. Three days after I eliminated the last of the grains, my arthritis (which had forced me to stop playing my ...

Nena Baker
North Point Press
, 2008
Well Done
Body Toxic, by journalist Nena Baker, is a well researched book on a sobering and chilling topic. Baker describes the ineffectiveness of both the EPA and FDA. She writes: "A scathing 2007 report prepared by members of the agency's own science advisory panel concluded that the FDA is suffering from serious deficiencies that put American lives at risk." All of us--regardless of how well we ...
