Tungsten
I had a woman with masters degree in biology who aspired to work in public health policy tell me I was nuts for worrying about fluoridated water.
She had never read this book, and didn't seem interested in doing so. It's pretty scary that such a blind spot can exist among scientists that should be educated on a health subject that affects so many millions of people.
Bryson is an excellent journalist. He presents this side of the fluoride story without being too slanted or sensationalistic.
Consider this quote:
"In the 1930`s, Hitler and the German Nazi`s envisioned a world to be dominated and controlled by a Nazi philosophy of pan-Germanism. The German chemists worked out a very ingenious and far-reaching plan of mass-control which was submitted to and adopted by the German General Staff. This plan was to control the population in any given area through mass medication of drinking water supplies. By this method they could control the population in whole areas, reduce population by water medication that would produce sterility in women, and so on. In this scheme of mass-control, sodium fluoride occupied a prominent place. ... "
-Charles Perkins, a chemist, to the Lee Foundation for Nutritional Research, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on October 2nd 1954.
Pretty scary stuff when you consider the links this book details between the military and water fluoridation.
