Observations And Experiments On The Poison Of Lead

One of the first works to explore the health effects of lead poisoning, Thomas Percival's Observations and Experiments on the Poison of Lead is a landmark work of medical science. Drawing on his own research and the observations of others, Percival makes a compelling case for the dangers of lead and the need to regulate its use in manufacturing and construction. With meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to the health and well-being of the public, Percival's work paved the way for modern environmental and occupational health regulations.
