Seven case studies and three essays explore the interplay between environmental regulation and scientific and engineering knowledge, and recommend that such knowledge be used more often to improve the validity and timeliness of regulatory decision making. Among the cases are tropospheric ozone, water chlorination, formaldehyde in the laboratory, and dioxin; each includes a chronology of scientific and technical advances and environmental regulation. Based on a February 1993 symposium in Washington, D. C. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
