Exposure (Bilott book)

According to Nathaniel Rich, writer at large for The New York Times Magazine and author of Losing Earth: A Recent History, the book is "An intimate account of one of the most appalling environmental crimes in modern history. Exposure is a classic story of American good and American evil—of the triumph of ingenuity, diligence, and self-sacrifice over psychopathic corporate nihilism. Rob Bilott is a hero of our time."

Gary Rivlin in the New York Times Book Review called Exposure a "David and Goliath tale with a twist…. Bilott skillfully tells the story of his epic battle with DuPont."[5]

"Leaves little doubt that year after year, the corporation misled government agencies, courts, and consumers into a false sense of security about the poisonous nature of their manufacturing processes." —Kirkus Reviews[6]

The Law Library Journal says, "Exposure is an intriguing and easy-to-follow narrative that will have you up in arms about what might be in your drinking water. If you liked Erin Brockovich or A Civil Action, this book is a must-read.”[7]

Bilott's story inspired the 2019 motion picture Dark Waters starring Mark Ruffalo as Robert Bilott and was featured in the feature-length documentary The Devil We Know (2018).
