A study of the potentially enormous and devastating health impacts of the global atmospheric changes which are under way. The author uses available knowledge to model future health impacts, including: vector-borne diseases such as malaria, dengue fever and schistosomiasis; marine-borne diseases such as cholera and toxic algae; cancers and cataracts from ozone depletion; and cardiovascular and respiratory disorders from higher temperatures and air pollution. The projections in this book, on the global and sub-global scale, as well as the methods used to reach them, are designed to provide information for researchers, policy makers and a wider public.
