An Air That Kills - How the asbestos poisoning of Libby, Montana, uncovered a national scandal - Schneider and McCumber

Landscapers, insulators and building redevelopment workers are prime candidates of these airborne hazards. Older clothes, filters, cosmetic talcs, and buildings (roofing, flooring, pipe and home insulation, plus siding material) may contain asbestos. www.penguin.com  www.asbestosnetwork.com
