| On the Cover. A number of articles in this month's issue explore the use of mathematics and models to explain complex environmental health problems, including what may be the mechanism behind colon cancer (NIEHS News, p. A394), the economic costs to society of environmental disease in children (Landrigan et al., p. 721), how pollutants are transmitted from one region to another (Innovations, p. A408), and the quest to devise an equitable model of compensation for Cold War nuclear workers (Spheres of Influence, p. A404).
