Preface
Althoughthechemicalindustrycantraceitsrootsintoantiquity,itwasduringtheindustrial
revolutionthatitstartedtobecomeanactualindustryandbegantousetheincreasedknowl-
edge of chemistry as a science and technology to produce products that were needed by
companionindustriesandconsumers.Thesecommercialeffortsresultedinthesynthesisof
manynewchemicals.Quitequickly,intheseearlydays,previouslyunknownmaterialsor
materialsthathadbeenpresentonlyinlowconcentrations,werenowincontactwithpeople
inhighlyconcentratedformsandinlargequantities.Thepeoplehadlittleornoknowledge
of the effects of these materials on their bodies and the natural biological and physical
processesintheriversandoceans,theatmosphere,andintheground.
Until the end of the nineteenth century these problems were not addressed by the
chemicalindustryanditisonlyrecentlythattheindustrybegantorespondtopubliccriti-

volume of production they have been specifically targeted by legislators throughout the
world.Therestrictionsrangefromtotalprohibitionofproductionanduse,tolimitsplaced
