Many of these chemical substances have been found to  interfere with the endocrine system and modulate its function. This  book not only overviews the effects of endocrine\/disrupting substances  on human health, but also addresses the regulatory problems from the  point of view of international organisations, including the WHO, the  EU, and the European Chlorine Industry. \u003cbr\u003e  This volume contains the proceedings of a workshop held at the  International Hippocrates Foundation on Kos Island, Greece, in  September 1999. The workshop was part of the activities of the ASPIS  project, which aims at raising awareness of environmental health  impacts among multidisciplinary groups. The contributions to this  volume are the result of the interaction of participants at the  workshop. As such, it addresses the issue of endocrine disrupters from  many different points of view and allows the subject to be approached  by a multidisciplinary readership, including: decision makers, medical  doctors, environmental experts, post\/and undergraduate students,  lawyers, engineers, and journalists.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-12-15\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9789048157297\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789048157297\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-9769-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 377\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44343267164300,"sku":"9789048157297","price":153.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789048157297_dd29fcda-ae07-4be0-8cb6-9f3df51e2a92.jpg?v=1755050657","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789048157297","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
