A Guide to the Medical Geology Literature

  • First Online:
Practical Applications of Medical Geology

Abstract

Medical geology (geology and health) is one of the most diverse, multidisciplinary scientific fields having practitioners from the geosciences, public health, epidemiology, toxicology, environmental health, medical geography, and occupational health, just to name a few of the many disciplines that are relevant to this field. Moreover, these researchers are working in more than 100 countries publishing their research in hundreds of geographically and scientifically diverse journals. This diversity, though healthy, makes it difficult to keep up with current, relevant, research papers. This chapter informs on many different paths in getting information on medical geology.
