Evidence of Harm, by David Kirby.

Mercury in Vaccine and the Autism Epidemic: A medical Controversy.

In the 1990s, autism in American children began spiking, from 1 in 10,000 in 1987 to a shocking 1 in 166 today. in this period, two series of shots containing a mercury-based preservative called Thimerosal were added to the nation's already crowded vaccination schedule. Some parents suddenly noticed their healthy children descending into silent, disturbed, and physically ill autism soon after receiving vaccinations. Ignored or dismissed by the FDA and the CDC, they discovered that children were being exposed to mercury at very young ages - even before birth - at levels far exceeding federal regulations.

Evidence of Harm explores both sides of this controversy, which has pitted families against the federal goverment, public health agencies, doctors and researchers, and powerful pharmaceutical giants. This disturbing, important book examines both the personal stories of families and the unfolding political drama in the courts and halls of congress.
