1. 1. They Poisoned The World

   Life and Death in the Age of Forever Chemicals

   

   They Poisoned the World investigates how “forever chemicals” (PFAS) came to contaminate drinking water across the United States. Starting with a 2014 discovery of toxic levels in Hoosick Falls, New York, Mariah Blake traces the chemicals’ history—from wartime research to decades of industry knowledge and internal testing linking PFAS to health problems—and examines how regulatory failures allowed widespread exposure. The book combines document-based investigative reporting with the story of local residents who fought to reveal the contamination and seek accountability.
