Volume 1 of Asbestos: Properties, Applications, and Hazards, edited by L. Michaels and S. S. Chissick and published by John Wiley & Sons in 1979. Its sixteen chapters by various contributors cover mineralogy, chemistry and physics, identifying asbestos in materials and air, non-occupational exposure, attitudes to asbestos, substitutes, buildings, and asbestos-related diseases. The editors say they avoided involving the asbestos industry or its opponents, except for the chemistry chapter by A. A. Hodgson of Cape Asbestos Fibres. The introduction includes a chronology of the British asbestos industry and a list of suppliers of respirators, dust-control equipment and services.
