Read Reviews for Thermochemical Processes Write review Christopher Sparks reviewed Thermochemical Processes on January 29, 2011 Thermochemical Processes I picked this up and put it down again a few times, but I'm so glad I stuck with it. Very thoughtful and worthwhile ethnography discussing the Bhopal disaster from many perspectives. The book tackles not just the disaster but the many reactions to it: across time (immediately after and in the years and decades that follow), across communities (in India and the U.S), and from many perspectives.
