Booknews, Inc. , 06/01/91
"A global review of the contamination of human milk, providing data on
levels of chemical contaminants and covering geographical variations
and time trends in levels. Includes discussion of the extent and
benefits of breast-feeding, the process involved in the transfer of
chemicals into breast milk, the analytical methodology used in human
milk studies, occupational chemicals found in human milk, the intake of
toxic chemicals by breast-fed infants compared with intakes from other
foodstuffs, and official limit values."

Hope this helps.  Maybe a university or other institution nearby might
have this or you could inter-library loan the book.  Might be cheaper
than buying.
