This bookprovides a roadmap for city-specific environmental health studies based on ambient air quality and measures of public health. Chapter one highlights the benefits of city-specific understanding toward the main goal of improving human health through knowledge and action. The book does not address environmental regulation, but rather focuses on the opportunities for individual cities to properly inform their residents of risks and concerns.
