Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are toxic degradation resistant bio accumulative and display wide spatial distribution which has been linked to mutagenic reproductive and immunological disorders. In Stockholm Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are toxic degradation resistant bio-accumulative and display wide spatial distribution which has been linked to mutagenic reproductive and immunological disorders. At the Stockholm Convention a global treaty was signed to minimize and ultimately eliminate the release of POPs into the environment. The present compilation regarding POPs focusses on the sources atmospheric behavior terrestrial and aquatic food chain transfer human exposure and fate aspects of this important class of chemicals including topical issues like temporal trends in contamination. Furthermore the chemical characteristics of individual POPs are also addressed. Features: Provides better understanding of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) and how they affect humans and ecosystems. Includes genesis categories environmental fate and behavior and associated hazards. Reviews analytical techniques involved in detection human exposure and management. Discusses environmental dynamics of POPs. Focuses on the comprehensive account of PCDD/Fs PCBs PAH and other organochlorine POPs such as DDT lindane and dieldrin.

We the People The Economic Origins of the Constitution

We the People The Economic Origins of the Constitution

Charles A. Beard's An Economic Interpretation of the United States Constitution was a work of such powerful persuasiveness as to alter the course of American historiography. No historian who followed in studying the making of the Constitution was entirely free from Beard's radical interpretation of the document as serving the economic interests of the Framers as members of the propertied class. Forrest McDonald's We the People was the first major challenge to Beard's thesis. This superbly researched and documented volume restored the Constitution as the work of principled and prudential men. It did much to invalidate the crude economic determinism that had become endemic in the writing of American history. We the People fills in the details that Beard had overlooked in his fragmentary book. MacDonald's work is based on an exhaustive comparative examination of the economic biographies of the 55 members of the Constitutional Convention and the 1 750 members of the state ratifying conventions. His conclusion is that on the basis of evidence Beard's economic interpretation does not hold. McDonald demonstrates conclusively that the interplay of conditioning or determining factors at work in the making of the Constitution was extremely complex and cannot be rendered intelligible in terms of any single system of interpretation. McDonald's classic work while never denying economic motivation as a factor also demonstrates how the rich cultural and political mosaic of the colonies was an independent and dominant factor in the decision making that led to the first new nation. In its pluralistic approach to economic factors and analytic richness We the People is both a major work of American history and a significant document in the history of ideas. It continues to be an essential volume for historians political scientists economists and American studies specialists. | We the People The Economic Origins of the Constitution
