Books Slow death

"Slow Death by Rubber Duck" explores how common household items and everyday products expose individuals to toxic chemicals, leading to potential health risks. The authors, Rick Smith and Bruce Lourie, undertake self-experimentation to highlight the presence of harmful substances in daily life, ranging from chemicals in personal care products to those found in food and furnishings. The book combines scientific data and political context to reveal the extent of chemical exposure and its impact, while also offering practical advice on how to mitigate these risks and advocate for change.
