About Naturally Dangerous
Product Description Science is integral to our everyday lives, but can you explain the scientific principle at work when you squeeze lemon on your fish? Did you know that margarine may be dangerous, humans are radioactive because of the foods they eat, special viruses can be useful antibiotics, and water vapour is the major gas involved in global warming? Review "Aiming to improve readers' scientific literacy, Naturally Dangerous examines the risks involved in the choices we make." -- The Washington Post "if you treat Collman's book as a sampler of solid advice, you won't finish it feeling hungry." -- The Washington Post "makes an effective case for not accepting the simple equation 'natural = safe.'" -- Nature "one of the most informative and valuable books on public health policy..." -- Stanford Report, Spyros Andreopoulos "open this book and surprise yourself with the facts." -- Choice About the Author Jim Collman is a Professor of Chemistry at Stanford University. A member of the National Academy of Sciences and a recipient of numerous research and teaching awards, Collman is also an avid fly-fisherman with broad interests in the environment, health, nutrition and the history of science.
