Sick Building Syndrome and the Problem of Uncertainty: Environmental Politics, Technoscience, and Women Workers Paperback - 2006 - 1st Edition
by Michelle Murphy
From the publisher
From the rear cover
"How does an illness come into being? In this provocative study, Michelle Murphy takes us on a journey into the making of an environmental illness, into the spaces of the modern office building, gendered labor practices, and workers' bodies to reveal what is perceived and what is invisible in the built environment where many Americans spend their working days. How sick buildings and indoor air pollution became visible problems in environmental health is a story that takes us far beyond the architectural history of office buildings. It takes us deep into the architecture of reality: into how we know and what we know about environmental exposures and the uncertainties they pose both to knowledge and human health."--Gregg Mitman, author of "The State of Nature: Ecology, Community, and American Social Thought, 1900-1950"
