Eggen's Toxic Torts in a Nutshell
Jean Macchiaroli Eggen
This work introduces the study of toxic torts and identifies the theories of liability related to both toxic products and environmental pollution. It covers special defendants, such as employers and governmental entities, workers compensation, preemption, causation and scientific evidence, and new theories of injury and damages. A chapter examines regulation of hazardous releases into the environment under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). The work also addresses mass toxic torts and examines emerging actions related to nanotechnology and climate change.
