Environmental Health Perspectives Volume 113, Number 1, January 2005
Environmental Health Perspectives January 2005 Whether it's the noise of airplanes taking off overhead or the rumble of the road beneath our tires, living in our modern world means that almost nowhere and at no time are we free from the cacophany of sound that surrounds us. Articles in this issue including the Focus (p. A34), Spheres of Influence (p. A42), and Innovations (p. A46) examine the health effects of such aural assaults and what governments and industrial innovators are doing to quiet things down.
