520    Toxic Exposures tells the shocking story of how the United
       States and its allies intentionally subjected thousands of
       their own servicemen to mustard gas as part of their 
       preparation for chemical warfare. Drawing from once-
       classified government records, military reports, 
       scientists' papers, and veterans' testimony, Susan L. 
       Smith assesses the poisonous legacies of these experiments,
       including scientific racism and environmental degradation.
       In addition, she reveals their surprising impact on the 
       origins of chemotherapy as cancer treatment and the 
       development of veterans' rights movements.
