Building the Worlds That Kill Us: Disease, Death, and Inequality in American History

By David Rosner and Gerald Markowitz

“For anyone interested in considering the impacts of environmental injustice, you’ll find this a very eye-opening and insightful read that examines the myriad ways that social, political, and economic structures and inequalities of race, class, and gender determine the disparate health experiences of rich and poor, black and white, women and men, immigrants and native-born, etc. Ever since I first read this duo’s book, ‘Deceit and Denial,’ I have considered anything they write an absolute must-read!” — Eve Fox, Digital Director
