Foreword
Researchers from every academic discipline strive to understand the world around them and to solve the big problems facing humanity. When they have made new discoveries, they share them with their peers. With respect to these objectives, environmental chemists and toxicologists are unexceptional. Sometimes, we advance the field by publishing journal articles reporting the unexpected occurrence of a new family of contaminants, a previously unrecognized response to chemical exposure or a new way of understanding toxicokinetics. At other times, our contributions involve peer-reviewed critical reviews or perspective articles that use existing data to propose new ways of categorizing and explaining environmental phenomena. And sometimes progress comes in the form of a research monograph. Unlike scientific journals, which sometimes sacrifice pedagogy for brevity and rapid publicat
