title: Environments, indoor air quality, and children.
abstract: This article addresses air-quality science in the indoor environments in which children and adolescents find themselves, including the home, the school, and other environments such as work and recreational situations. The home arena is covered extensively, presenting an analysis of the usual exposures such as environmental tobacco smoke and bioaerosols and also touching on discrete issues such as sudden infant death syndrome, carbon monoxide, and public housing. Recreation and work environments are covered as well.
