A clear understanding of information provision and how this affects the assessment of chemical safety is fundamentally important to the success of policy on chemicals and ultimately to the sustainability of the chemicals industry. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWithin the book, the scientific processes that underpin the policy are explained in a \u003ci\u003epractical\u003c\/i\u003e way.  Importantly, it includes coverage of techniques to help solve the problems of using potentially risky and hazardous chemicals through the use of less hazardous alternatives and ‘green chemistry’, and also the analysis of the risks of the use of the most hazardous substances against the social and economic benefits of use.  \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eChemical Risk Assessment: A Manual for REACH\u003c\/i\u003e covers the following main themes: \u003cb\u003ei) Assessment of chemical risk; ii) Risk management; iii) Hazard reduction, substitution and green chemistry; iv) Risk versus benefit – socio-economic analysis.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book acts as a practical guide and overview to chemicals risk assessment and risk management (in the EU context), as well as a support text for planning for the challenges of the future, which will see ever-increasing pressure to withdraw hazardous substances from the EU (and global) market, balanced against opportunities for innovation in the development of less hazardous chemicals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDr Peter Fisk,\u003c\/b\u003e Managing Director, is a chemist, with 15 years experience in industrial research and development, and over 13 years as a consultant working for regulatory authorities, industry and publishers.
