Losing Our Minds: How Environmental Pollution Impairs Human Intelligence and Mental Health - Oxford Series in Behavioral Neuroendocrinology
Demeneix, Professor Barbara (Professor, Professor, Natural History Museum, Paris, France, Paris)
The exponential increases in neurodevelopmental disorders implicate both genetic causes and environmental factors. Flame-retardants, pesticides, plasticizers, and other every-day products contain chemicals shown to affect thyroid hormone signaling, which if disrupted can result in significant impairment to IQ. Across entire populations, such effects spell large-scale social and economic consequences.
