520    A compelling exploration of the mysteries of environmental
       toxicity and the community of "sensitives"-people with 
       powerful, puzzling symptoms resulting from exposure to 
       chemicals, fragrances, and cell phone signals, that have 
       no effect on "normals." They call themselves "sensitives."
       Over fifty million Americans endure a mysterious 
       environmental illness that renders them allergic to 
       chemicals. Innocuous staples from deodorant to garbage 
       bags wreak havoc on sensitives. For them, the enemy is 
       modernity itself. No one is born with EI. It often starts 
       with a single toxic exposure. Then the symptoms hit: 
       extreme fatigue, brain fog, muscle aches, inability to 
       tolerate certain foods. With over 85,000 chemicals in the 
       environment, danger lurks around every corner. Largely 
       ignored by the medical establishment and dismissed by 
       family and friends, sensitives often resort to odd ersatz 
       remedies, like lining their walls with aluminum foil or 
       hanging mail on a clothesline for days so it can "off-gas"
       before they open it. Broudy encounters Brian Welsh, a 
       prominent figure in the EI community, and quickly becomes 
       fascinated by his plight. When Brian goes missing, Broudy 
       travels with Jeremy, an eager, trusting sensitive to find 
       Brian, investigate this disease, and delve into the 
       intricate, ardent subculture that surrounds it. Their 
       destination: Snowflake, the capital of the EI world. 
       Located in eastern Arizona, it is a haven where sensitives
       can live openly without fear of toxins or the judgment of 
       insensitive "normals." While Broudy's book is wry, pacey, 
       and down-to-earth, it also dives deeply into compelling 
       corners of medical and American history. He finds telling 
       parallels between sensitives and their cultural forebears,
       from the Puritans to those refugees and dreamers who 
       settled the West. Ousted from mainstream society, these 
       latter-day exiles nonetheless shed bright light on the 
       anxious, noxious world we all inhabit now.
