Toxic Legacy: How the Weedkiller Glyphosate Is Destroying Our Health and the Environment
by Stephanie Seneff, 272 pages (including 58 pages of indices and notes), 6x9, hardcover. Glyphosate is a difficult word to say, let alone to understand in all its complex interactions within the human body and the wider environment. Finally, we have a guide. Stephanie Seneff, senior MIT researcher, presents meticulous science in plain terms, detailing widespread intricacies of harm that affect us all. She became aware of glyphosates through her research on the rise of autism and spent eight years building the case she presents here. She considers glyphosate “the most dangerous environmental chemical we face today due to its unique mechanisms of toxicity, careless approach and pervasive presence,” and she is clear, passionate and inspiring in her indictment. This impactful book has been compared to Silent Spring, Rachel Carson’s treatise against DDT. Perhaps to secure that legacy, a copy should be given to every state and national legislator to galvanize them to enact a similar ban. -Nikos Kavanya
