- Description
- Asbestos represents one of the most heavily studied occupational and environmental hazards of human history. From an epidemiological perspective, it also represents one of the most important and historically significant case studies in Environmental and Occupational Health (EOH). The subdiscipline of EOH that examines and evaluates workplace risks, occupational epidemiology, has itself been evolving as new statistical techniques emerge and the complexities of workplace exposures increase.
