Re: textbooks



Dear Chris,

My understanding is that the students are largely students enrolled in the
MS program for Industrial Hygiene or Environmental Medicine.  I am assuming
they have little to no background in HP and are several years past their
latest classes in math and physics.  I would love to use a book that
explains the basics of HP in a complete but not overly-theoretical manner
and that will be well-suited as a basic desk reference for a corporate
health and safety officer, industrial hygienist, or other similar position.
 Preferrably at a reasonable price, too, because I still remember trying to
juggle bills for another few weeks so I could pay for textbooks.  From this
perspective, even though Cember's book is the standard (and one I refer to
frequently), Moe or Gollnick may be more appropriate and more valuable in
the long run.

I hope this helps!

Andy
