Polluted and Dangerous is a welcome and timely contribution to the literature in urban affairs and environmental studies. His work ably demonstrates both the potential and utility of interdisciplinary work in the social sciences. Few scholars have studied the long-term impacts of brown fields on people and place. Polluted and Dangerous is an important first cut at filling this gap in the literature. This is not only a book for libraries -- it should be read by planners and advocates alike who care about the future of abandoned property. --Environment and Planning
