The four volumes in
Dr. William Rea's series of medical textbooks, Chemical
Sensitivity, published by CRC Press and Lewis Publishers are available. As
the first major scientific series on chemical sensitivity, the series results from the study of
more than 30,000 patients seen since 1974 at the Environmental Health Center in Dallas,
and over 100,000 patients from around the world as well as over 5,000 references from
scientific literature.
The Environmental Physician
newsletter states,
"Environmentally oriented physicians, allergists, nutritionists, physicians in
preventative and occupational medicine, and medical students will find that Chemical
Sensitivity is truly a magnum opus in the field of toxicology and will prove to be
a classic reference."

Chemical Sensitivity
Vol. 1 - Principles and Mechanisms 1992 pages 1-533 is about the basic
science of the body's metabolism effected by pollutants. What is chemical sensitivity? How
do you diagnose and treat these symptoms? What's the role of the immune and
non-immune mechanisms to explain the body's processing of pollutants? How do you
nutritionally
fuel the endocrine, immunological and neurological systems to respond to exposure?
Chemical Sensitivity
Vol. 2 - Sources of Total Body Load - 1994 pages 534 - 1104 describes the basic science of environmental pollutants.
What is total environmental load? How do you know the level of total pollutants in the
air, food, and water the body processes to maintain health? This volume identifies the
sources of pollutants that can contribute to body overload - stress- including water,
food, food toxins, outdoor and indoor air, inorganic and organic chemicals, pesticides,
formaldehyde, terpenes, and drugs. Softcover, plastic ring binder only.
Hardcover not available.
Chemical Sensitivity Vol. 3 -
Clinical Manifestation of Pollutant Overload - 1996 pages 1105
- 2015 describes the clinical syndromes that are environmentally triggered.
How do pollutants effect the various anatomical systems - ENT/Upper Respiratory,
Lower Respiratory, Chest Wall and Breast, Cardiovascular, Gastrointestinal, Genitourinary,
Musculoskeletal, Endocrine, Skin, Nervous, and Ophthalmalogical? What effect do pollutants
have on the unique susceptibility of children?
Chemical Sensitivity, Vol. 4 -
Tools
of Diagnosis and Methods of Treatment
