Environmental pollution and genetic vulnerability: Impacts of ecosystem degradation on human health

Health crises, multiple forms of pollution, and the collapse of biodiversity reveal the urgency of rethinking health beyond fragmented approaches. Human, animal, and ecosystem health form an inseparable whole.Based on the One Health concept, this work offers an integrated scientific analysis of the health of living beings. Thanks to dual expertise in molecular and cellular biology, and in environmental toxicology and ecotoxicology, the author highlights the impact of cumulative environmental exposures on biological mechanisms and the vulnerability of human and animal populations.Drawing on international scientific data and field experience in ecosystem protection, the book emphasizes the strategic role of the Global South in building sustainable solutions for global health.At the crossroads of science and environmental action, this work is intended for all those who wish to understand the profound links between the environment and health, and to contribute to integrated health policies in the face of 21st-century crises.
