Poisoned Profits: The Toxic Assault on Our Children, by Phil and Alice Shabecoff, is a powerful book that provides evidence of higher rates of birth defects, cancer, autism, and other serious illnesses in baby boomers and their children due to being raised in an environment filled with toxins. It cites examples of corporate pollutions' effects in places such as Dickson, Tennessee where babies were born with cleft lips and pallets, and in Port Neches, Texas where so many graduates of a local high school contracted cancer that the school was dubbed "Leukemia High". It also informs the reader of other dangers such as fire retardants in mattresses, plastic softeners in teething rings, and antibiotics and arsenic in chicken that could harm children and pregnant women. It discusses the obstacles to getting rid of these toxins and dangers, and how people can take action. 368 pages.
