Abstract: This book discusses the international trade in toxic substances, specifically pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and hazardous wastes. Abuses, exploitation of uniformed consumers, and the double standard that says products considered unsafe for use in the industrialized world may be promoted and sold freely in the developing nations are discussed. Attempts to purchase rights to dump hazardous waste in third world countries and the marketing practices of infant formula manufacturers in third world countries are also examined.
