Occupational health hazards in the dental office are addressed, includingchemical, biological, radiological, and ergonomic hazards. The hwk also discusses ventilation a s a control tool in the laboratory and presents practical and design examples.
Monographs Organic Photochemistry: Principles and Applications Jacques Kagan. Academic Press: New York, NY, 1993. vi + 234 pp. Figs. and tables. 17.4 x 25.1 cm. $40.00. This book covers the principles, techniques, and some of the well-known reactions occurring in organic molecules. I t also illustrates more complex photochemical transformations occurring in organic chemistry. Afull chapter is devoted to photochemical reactions involving oxygen, which are of importance i n photohiology, and separate chapters discuss applications of phote chemistry in biochemistry and hiologv.

The second edition of this book presents a survey ofthe physical chemistry of electrolytes, thermodynamics of electrode equilibria, structure of electrified interfaces (electrical double layer), electron transfer kinetics, electrocatalysis, photaelectrochemistry, membrane electrochemistry, and hiolectrochemistry. In contrast to the first edition, the accent has been shifted from classical subjects to up-to-date topics including electrochemical materials science (semiconductors and ionically conducting polymers), chemically modified electrodes. interaction of electrodes with lieht. - . new asnects of membrane orocesses. hiosensars and structure. and stouha~twphenc,mens i n electrochemwry. In all secouns ofthe buok the d c t i l s have been revi.ied in urdrr to make the subject more comprehensive. Interpretationof Mass Spectra, 4th ed.
