520    When natural gas drilling moves into an urban or a 
       suburban neighborhood, a two-hundred-foot-high drill 
       appears on the other side of a back yard fence and diesel 
       trucks clog a quiet two-lane residential street. Children 
       seem to be having more than the usual number of 
       nosebleeds. There are so many local cases of cancer that 
       the elementary school starts a cancer support group. In 
       this book, Jessica Smartt Gullion examines what happens 
       when natural gas extraction by means of hydraulic 
       fracturing, or "fracking," takes place not on wide-open 
       rural land but in a densely populated area with homes, 
       schools, hospitals, parks, and businesses. Gullion focuses
       on fracking in the Barnett Shale, the natural-gas--rich 
       geological formation under the Dallas--Fort Worth 
       metroplex. She gives voice to the residents -- for the 
       most part educated, middle class, and politically 
       conservative -- who became reluctant anti-drilling 
       activists in response to perceived environmental and 
       health threats posed by fracking. --Publisher.
