Toxicology

Although many view toxicology as a new science, since man discovered the medicinal properties of plants, it has been known that such materials could produce toxic effects. This book offers a broad but focused view of toxicology by experts in the field, with particular emphasis on specific target organs and the current state-of-the-art concerns, rather than on subjects such as carcinogenesis and mutagenesis that are thoroughly covered in numerous other texts. This unique text will serve to narrow the gaps in the existing knowledge base, gaps that must continue to be filled by ongoing and future research, thus expanding our collective knowledge of biological aspects of toxicology.Haley, Thomas J. is the author of 'Toxicology', published 1988 under ISBN 9780891168102 and ISBN 0891168109.
