Críticas:

"The authors have put an enormous effort into acquiring the data in this book and... it is a very interesting and stimulating read." (Chromatographia, June 2010) "The authors should be commended for providing all of the facts of the controversy in one place. Their call for both sides to get together to study the health issues with reason and respect is also a worthwhile goal because, as they point out; perhaps then 'this long-standing and somewhat silly dispute could finally he laid to rest.'" (Chemical and Engineering News, September 2009)

Reseña del editor:

The Flouride Wars offers a witty retelling of a highly debated scientific conflict in our past. It contains a variety of anecdotes regarding the history of tooth decay and the start of the use of fluoride, as well as the beginning of water fluoridation in the Unites States. This reader-friendly assessment of the best current thinking effectively portrays the mechanisms by which fluoride reduces tooth decay, its effectiveness and safety, and the credibility of the health-risk claims of the anti-fluoride movement.
