The Median Isn't the Message by Stephen Jay Gould. This "is the wisest, most humane thing ever written about cancer and statistics. It is the antidote both to those who say that, "the statistics don't matter," and to those who have the unfortunate habit of pronouncing death sentences on patients who face a difficult prognosis." http://www.cancerguide.org/median_not_msg.html

The Age of Extinction and The Emerging Environmental Health Movement Michael Lerner This Essay by Lerner may be the most comprehensive exploration of how we got into this environmental morass, with 70,000 strange chemical compounds lose in the air we breathe, the food we eat and the water we drink. More importantly, he describes how we might get out of the mess. Highly recommended.
