"The sociology of hazardous waste, risk, and disasters is a
relatively new discipline with an increasing volume of empirical
research by scholars. Francis O. Adeola focuses this book on
hazardous and toxic wastes releases, industrial toxic disasters,

subsequent adverse health effects among exposed populations. He
explains the emerging sociological study of risk, natural, and

disciplines in the discussion of the problems posed by
technological hazards both in advanced industrialized societies and
