This highly accessible book identifies the major air pollutants which cause human health concerns and examines the sources of these pollutants. With a focus on NOx gases, particulate matter (PM), tropospheric ozone, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), Part 1 covers the theory and relates these pollutants to specific health outcomes by examining the nature of anatomical/physiological systems which are affected and the mechanisms by which these effects take place.Part 2 explores the legal and policy frameworks that govern local air quality management in the UK. It examines the responsibilities and powers of regulators, the role of national and international legislation, and how law and guidance are used to protect public health and improve environmental outcomes. Part 3 outlines the role of environmental health practitioners (EHPs) in dealing with local air quality management for communities before the applications used to control pollution are discussed, both in terms of using the law effectively and technological interventions which can trap air pollution at source.The book is principally aimed at undergraduate and/or post graduate students in Environmental Health and Public Health and EHPs practising in the field of air quality control. It will also be relevant to students of environmental sciences, health sciences, medicine and environmental law and policy.

Queering Connection: Narratives of Healing in Relational Cultural Therapy with Queer and Transgender Clients provides readers with an in-depth look into the application of Relational Cultural Therapy (RCT) principles to the therapeutic treatment of queer and transgender clients. The textbook leverages RCT's theoretical framework to empower mental health practitioners with strategies that validate and celebrate the identities of individuals within these communities.The book is structured into three main sections. The initial section lays the foundation by exploring the history and theory of RCT and then continues to expand on the adaptation of this approach through a queer theoretical lens. The text features narratives that illustrate the profound impact of authenticity, growth, connection, and mutuality in the healing process. It also addresses the challenge of overcoming controlling images and fostering relational images, as well as exemplifying how relational resilience and courage can be cultivated. The closing section synthesizes these elements, addressing the ethical considerations pertinent to the intersection of RCT and the unique experiences of queer and transgender individuals. Queering Connection is an essential resource for courses in counseling, psychology, social work, and queer studies, suitable for both graduate and undergraduate levels. It provides students and professionals with critical insights to enhance their practice in an affirming and inclusive way, fostering better therapeutic outcomes for clients from diverse gender and sexual orientation backgrounds.
