From Pink to Green: Disease Prevention and the Environmental Breast Cancer Movement

From the late 1980s, the U.S. environmental breast cancer movement has championed the goal of eradicating the disease by emphasizing the importance of reducing-even eliminating-exposure to chemicals and toxins. From Pink to Green chronicles the movement's disease prevention philosophy from the beginning.

Barbara L. Ley successfully explores the intersection between breast cancer activism and the environmental health sciences, discussing key public and scientific debates as well as policy implications for public health and environmental agendas.
