In the tradition of Silent Spring and The Sixth Extinction, an urgent, “disturbing, empowering, and essential” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) book about the ways in which chemicals in the modern environment are changing—and endangering—human sexuality and fertility on the grandest scale, from renowned epidemiologist Shanna Swan.

In 2017, author Shanna Swan and her team of researchers completed a major study. They found that over the past four decades, sperm levels among men in Western countries have dropped by more than 50 percent. They came to this conclusion after examining 185 studies involving close to 45,000 healthy men. The result sent shockwaves around the globe—but the story didn’t end there. It turns out our sexual development is changing in broader ways, for both men and women and even other species, and that the modern world is on pace to become an infertile one.

How and why could this happen? What is hijacking our fertility and our health? Count Down unpacks these questions, revealing what Swan and other researchers have learned about how both lifestyle and chemical exposures are affecting our fertility, sexual development—potentially including the increase in gender fluidity—and general health as a species. Engagingly explaining the science and repercussions of these worldwide threats and providing simple and practical guidelines for effectively avoiding chemical goods (from water bottles to shaving cream) both as individuals and societies, Count Down is “staggering in its findings” (Erin Brockovich, The Guardian) and “will serve as an awakening” (The New York Times Book Review).

People like Shana Swan increase my faith in humanity and in the future.

It's interesting, informative, scientifically thorough eithout being jargon heavy.

Inspiring and interesting

The book is written an a way that even a person with little knowledge in this area is able to understand the scientific explainations. I very much enjoyed listing to it and have recommended it to several friends already. The only thing that the author could have added is some recommendations what products we should try to reduce in our daily lives e.g. harsh chemicals in beauty products. I use an app that is called code check to scan the QR code of groceries, makeup and other items, to have a look at their ingredients list. The app points out all the bad ingredients and offers you insight weather you should buy this product or not. Definitely worth downloading.

Great book, that makes us relistes how work still lies ahead of us to better protect our environment
