Why do some people communicate in shouts? Why do some cultures speak more loudly than others? Do people consider that loud voices are a kind of noise? Do people know that shouting has a negative effect on health? Noise is the second most important environmental cause of illness, after the ultrafine contaminating particles in the air. And shouting is one of the noises that could be reduced by self-control. A measure which has no cost, but with a big benefit in health. We live in noisy times, and it is important to know that shouting can damage several organs and systems in the bodies of the shouters and of their unwilling hearers. Children and teachers in school, restaurant staff and office workers are examples of people who suffer the consequences of loud voices. Natural areas and cultural places are all-too-frequently invaded by unnecessary shouts. This book investigates the impact of noises and shouts on health, inviting readers to reflect about their own experiences of this problem.
