"Mercury offers an opportunity to trace a millennial-scale history of human interactions with an element whose use has both benefited and harmed human well-being in complex and interacting ways. The book develops and applies an analytical framework using the perspective of a human-technical-environmental system to learn from the long history of human mercury use and exposure, and to inform strategies--here done in story form--by which people can effect change towards greater sustainability"-- Provided by publisher
