About this product

Product Information

Drs. Elaine Hampton and Cynthia C. Ontiveros weave this eloquent testimony into a cautionary tale of toxic exposure, community activism, and a corporate employer's dubious relationship with ethics--set against the political tug-of-war between industry's demands and government's obligation to protect the health of its people and the environment.

"...those interested in historical and contemporary struggles for environmental justice will find Hampton and Ontiveros's study thought provoking and complementary to the growing studies that link the effect of pollutants to the environment, local communities, and public health." -- Southwestern Historical Quarterly, "Modern economies run on copper, but Copper Stain unearths the costs--human and environmental--in ways we rarely see. Through careful historical research and illuminating oral histories, Hampton and Ontiveros excavate the tragic consequences of ASARCO's frequently unconscionable and sometimes illegal actions in El Paso. The stories collected here remind us how environmental injustice and violence accrue in the bodies of workers, communities, and Earth itself."-- Adam M. Sowards , author of The Environmental Justice: William O. Douglas and American Conservation, " Copper Stain is a powerful work of grassroots scholarship exposing the tremendous physical and social costs of ASARCO's El Paso smelter. By allowing the former workers to tell the stories of their declining health and the exploitation they have faced through their lives, Hampton and Ontiveros make a critical addition to our knowledge of environmental and workplace injustice."-- Erik Loomis , author of Empire of Timber and Out of Sight, "From Tacoma, Washington, to San Luis Potosí, Mexico, ASARCO's smelters have been lacing people's bodies with contaminants for well over a century now. Hampton and Ontiveros's study of El Paso presents the fruit of extensive research and interviews with dozens of the central actors in this drama. It delivers the human experience of this chronic violence with the immediacy and care that it demands."-- Daviken Studnicki-Gizbert, Professor of History, McGill University

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
