'What is different about this review than books, other reviews, Wikipedia and encyclopedias.
The Environmental Protection Agency EPA was approved in December 1970. Many of the resource texts on Bromine Chemistry were compiled, written and referenced before then. So the notion of the environmental and health impacts of Bromine is an imperative. Also not included are gas phase photochemistry, green chemistry (atom-efficiency), strategies to employ bromine’s effectiveness and biological roles of bromine in humans need to be highlighted.'
