Description
Phosphate Fluorides Toxic Torts is a personal account by Gary Pittman of his seven-year battle with chemical poisoning and the obstacles he faced in pursuing compensation from Occidental Chemical Corporation.
Pittman's story is set against the backdrop of a landmark case, "United States v. Occidental," which highlighted the company's involvement in the "Love Canal" public health disaster in the late 1970s.
This book provides a unique insight into the challenges faced by individuals seeking justice and compensation for toxic tort claims, and serves as a reminder that even when health is compromised, financial compensation may not be enough to restore well-being.
