In this important 36 work, Zeliger catalogs the known effects of chemical mixtures on the human body and also proposes a framework for understanding and predicting their actions in terms of lipophile fat soluble / hydrophile water soluble interactions. The authors focus is on illnesses that ensue following exposures to mixtures of chemicals that cannot be attributed to any one component of the mixture. In the first part the mechanisms of chemical absorption at a molecular and macromolecular level are explained, as well as the bodys methods of defending itself against xenobiotic intrusion. Part II examines the
