A section on Workers’ Compensation, by attorney
Randolph I. Gordon will be invaluable to anyone trying to navigate
this circuitous, often unresponsive system. It will also serve as a
treasured aid to anyone involved in toxic tort litigation. Useful
information on hazard communication, regulatory guqwidelines, the
validity of low-level exposures, proving causation in the courtroom,
coping with skepticism, along with pertinent legal precedents to help
you authoritatively present your case to a prospective attorney, are
all here!
Bonnye Matthews has done a masterful job of
reviewing the latest complicated information on porphyria and making
it readable by the layperson. “With understanding porphyria, it is now
possible, for the first time, to create a model of MCS.” In a
scientific climate insisting on “biomarkers,” this may well be the key
to opening the door to the validation of MCS.
If you need to help document your injuries, you can
learn about the latest in brain scanning technology, a section written
by Gunnar Heuser, M.D., Ph.D. A chapter by Donald Dudley, M.D. will
help you critically analyze the medical literature on MCS and sort out
the distortions from the facts. You will learn how to defend yourself
against arrogant medical misdiagnoses and learn to appreciate the
reasons why conventional medicine prefers to define MCS as psychogenic
rather than admit that it is an avoidable problem of chemical
poisoning.
You might just want to get an extra copy to share
with skeptical family members and friends. This is a powerful tool for
education and activism.
