Interviewing dozens of the environmentally ill, the authors recount how these people come to acknowledge and define their disease, and themselves, in a suddenly unlivable world that often stigmatizes them as psychologically unstable.This text examines the struggle to achieve recognition of complaints and disabilities that many contend are related to manufactured environments. It explores the arising political, legal and medical conflicts and the relationship between illness and the modern environment.
