Abstract/Contents: | "Pesticides promote health directly through the control of vector-borne diseases and indirectly through increased and improved agricultural production. On the contrary, the extensive use of any biologically active chemical implies a potential hazard which has to be evaluated. The public health aspects of these valuable, but potentially dangerous, economic poisons have been ably reviewed, sometimes at greater length than is permitted here (6, 8, 53). The facts have changed very little. This review attempts to present some results of recent research together with enough narrative to supply continuity." |
