National Cancer Institute, Asbestos and Health: An Annotated Bibliography of Public and Professional Education Materials (1978)

A 67-page annotated bibliography of August 1978 from the Cancer Information Clearinghouse of the National Cancer Institute, listing about 160 booklets, films, articles and reports on asbestos and health for workers, employers, health professionals and the public, each with a short description and where to get it. Entries come from government agencies, unions, professional groups and industry, among them several from Johns-Manville's Health, Safety and Environment Department: "The Asbestos Report" newspaper edited by W. Cooper, the film "Working with Asbestos" and the leaflet "Occupational Health Guide: Asbestos." This copy is stamped as received by the Johns-Manville Information Center on June 25, 1979.

What it shows

The bibliography's entry on J-M's occupational health guide describes a leaflet from "a manufacturer of asbestos-containing products" on the risks of asbestosis, lung cancer, mesothelioma and gastrointestinal cancer. J-M's own announcement of that guide is Walt Cooper to HSE Distribution on Two New Occupational Health Guides, Asbestos and PVC (1976).
