"Explains how industrial chemicals are causing a silent pandemic of chemical brain drain. For the first time links vulnerable development of our complicated brain circuitry to functional changes caused by environmental pollutants. Exposes how a combination of academic naiveté, negligence by regulatory authorities, and irresponsible interference by vested interests has created a public health crisis of chemical brain drain."
