A social history of asbestos disease in Scotland by Ronald Johnston and Arthur McIvor, published by Tuckwell Press in 2000. Drawing on interviews with over 30 former asbestos workers and their partners, and on records including Turner & Newall papers, it traces the subject from the first Scottish asbestos firms of the 1870s. It covers manufacturing, shipbuilding and construction, regulation and compensation, employers, unions and pressure groups, and victims' lives. Appendices include a 1967 asbestos dust survey of Glasgow's Red Road building site.
