He\u2019s written the book, How Everyday Products make People Sick: Toxins at Home and in the Workplace. The book reveals the hidden health dangers in many of the seemingly innocent products we encounter every day\u2014a tube of glue in a kitchen drawer, a bottle of bleach in the laundry room, even a rayon scarf on a closet shelf. A compelling expos\u00e9, written by a physician with extensive experience in public health and illustrated with disturbing case histories, How Everyday Products Make People Sick is a rich and meticulously documented account of injury and illness across different time periods, places, and technologies. It shows  how run-of-the-mill manufacturing processes and consumer marketing expose workers and the general public alike to toxic hazards. And even when such hazards are recognized, calls for their control are routinely ignored. The journal of Occupational &#038; Environmental Medicine Has called Blanc\u2019s book, &#8220;A superbly researched and scholarly book that traces the history of the author&#8217;s selection of relatively well-known occupational hazards.&#8221; Here is part 2 of my conversation with Paul Blanc. <\/p>\n<p><em>GUEST: Paul Blanc, Professor of Medicine and holds the Endowed Chair in Occupational and Environmental Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, author of How Everyday Products make People Sick: Toxins at Home and in the Workplace<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday we heard part 1 of my conversation with Paul Blanc, a Professor of Medicine who holds the Endowed Chair in Occupational and Environmental Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco.
