Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS), or EI (environmental illness), is a poorly understood phenomenon that has no scientifically accepted definition or treatment. However, one commonality among MCS sufferers is development of physical symptoms after exposure to chemical substances. As symptoms appear, sufferers can become hypersensitive to many everyday chemicals, such as perfume, household cleansers, and exhausts. Many self-help books address this medical mystery, including classics like Bonnye Matthews's Chemical Sensitivity (McFarland, 1992), Janice Stubbe Wittenberg's The Rebellious Body (LJ 11/1/96), and Sherry Rogers's Tired or Toxic? Of the two new additions to the field, Radetsky's book is the more comprehensive in terms of MCS case histories, the relationship of MCS to Gulf War syndrome, medicolegal difficulties in establishing MCS as a "real" disease entity, and the possible cause(s) of MCS. By contrast, Breaking Out of Environmental Illness is an account by two MCS sufferers who on their journey to find a cure find solace from a "great spiritual teacher and healer who has a deep connection to Earth and humanity." This book is interesting if not essential reading for people with MCS/EI, but Radetsky's book belongs on the shelf with established MCS works.?Susan Maret, Auraria Lib., Univ. of Colorado, Denver

When Sampson and Hughes met in 1989, both already manifested signs of environmental illness. They chronicle their subsequent experiences with chemical sensitivities and also Hughes' realization that she was a survivor of the post-traumatic stress of recovering from an abusive childhood. Feeling trapped in the city, the couple fled to the country, adopting flexible work hours so they needed to stay in their in-town apartment only several nights weekly. But country life brought unusual fatigue, muscle spasms, and worse. Through channeling and such other means of accessing and releasing inner spiritual energy as kinesiology, they eventually turned the corner to improved health by clearing themselves of anger, anxiety, and other negative energies. Fans of Shirley MacLaine's books well may love Sampson and Hughes' effort, while others may find it somewhat unbelievable. Whitney Scott
