The debut CHE Café call featured a free-ranging conversation with the authors of two powerful new books:

    ⁃    Nancy A. Nichols, author of Lake Effect: Two Sisters and a Town's Toxic Legacy, described as "provocative" by the Pittsburgh City Paper
    ⁃    Alice and Philip Shabecoff, authors of Poisoned Profits: The Toxic Assault on Our Children, which Science News called a "powerful investigative work"
