Case Studies [TBD]. 001438685 506__ $$aAccess limited to authorized users. 001438685 520__ $$aThis edited volume provides a framework for integrating methods and information drawn from geological and medical sciences and provides case studies in medical geology to illustrate the usefulness of this framework for crafting environmental and public health policies related to natural materials. The relevance of medical geology research to policy decisions is a topic rarely discussed, and this volume attempts to be a unique source for researchers and policy makers in the field of medical geology in addressing this gap in practical medical geology applications. The book's four sections establish this framework in detail using risk assessment, case studies, data analyses and specific medical geology techniques. Following an introduction to medical geology in the context of risk assessment and risk management, the second section discusses specific methods used in medical geology in the categories of geoscience, biomedicine, and data sources. The third section discusses the medical geology of natural materials, energy use, and environmental and workplace impacts. This section includes specific case studies in medical geology, and describes how the methods and data from the previous section are used in a medical geology analysis. The fourth section includes a guide to the medical geology literature and provides some examples of medical geology programs in Asia and Africa. 001438685 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed August 16, 2021). 001438685 650_0 $$aEnvironmentally induced diseases. 001438685 650_0 $$aGeology$$xHealth aspects. 001438685 650_0 $$aEnvironmental health. 001438685 650_0 $$aEnvironmental geology. 001438685 650_6 $$aMaladies de l'environnement. 001438685 650_6 $$aGéoécologie. 001438685 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001438685 7001_ $$aSiegel, Malcolm,$$eeditor. 001438685 7001_ $$aSelinus, O.$$q(Olle),$$eeditor. 001438685 7001_ $$aFinkelman, Robert B.$$q(Robert Barry),$$eeditor. 001438685 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tPractical applications of medical geology.$$dCham, Switzerland : Springer, 2021$$z3030538923$$z9783030538927$$w(OCoLC)1159045450 001438685 852__ $$bebk 001438685 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-53893-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001438685 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1438685$$pGLOBAL_SET 001438685 980__ $$aBIB 001438685 980__ $$aEBOOK 001438685 982__ $$aEbook 001438685 983__ $$aOnline 001438685 994__ $$a92$$bISE
