  abstract: Environmental pollutants such as lead, mercury, and pesticides interfere with brain development, yet we do not test industrial chemicals for brain toxicity. In this book, Philippe Grandjean argues for the necessity of protecting the brains of future generations and proposes a plan of action to halt what he refers to as chemical brain drain.
  table of contents: Sensitive development : complexity creates vulnerability -- Toxic invasion : the placenta is not a protective armor -- Invisible lead : health hazards from demanding scientific proof -- Poisoned science : mercury damaged the child's brain but did not harm the mother -- Substituted milk : poisoning during infancy causes permanent brain damage -- Persistent problems : chemicals resistant to break-down can break brain cells -- Unusual suspects : chemicals that protect the lawn may damage the brain -- Mindless costs : losses suffered by victims and society from chemical brain drain -- Inconvenient truths : vested interests can endanger brain development -- Brainy choices : how to secure optimal brain development for the next generation.
