Couverture : Dans les milieux de la santé du travail et de l'environnement, voilà déjà plusieurs décennies que l'on débat de la question de l'amiante. Dans ce numéro, le Collegium Ramazzini demande une interdiction absolue de l'extraction minière et de l'utilisation de l'amiante (page 489). Michel Camus (page 491) et Jack Siemiatycki (page 495) sont en désaccord.
