A Florida State University PhD dissertation in history by Craig Alex Biegel, defended March 21, 2016, on how corporate attorneys shaped research into toxic-substance disease. Its case studies cover silica, tobacco, asbestos, chromium and benzene. It includes a chapter titled "The Asbestos Experience" and an appendix on recent brake articles. The author, whose firm once represented major asbestos manufacturers and who later held an interest in plaintiff asbestos cases, argues that attorney-managed research distorted the medical literature toward the null hypothesis.
