This fourth edition keeps you up to date in one of the most exciting and expanding fields in medical science.

Review

This is a wonderful book! Clinical laboratorians will find it a valuable tool for the laboratory reference book shelf.
- Thomas P. Moyer, Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota, USA

…a good reference for the clinician, medical student, and general toxicologist. The wealth of information is, for example, ideal for preparing for an examination on the clinical aspects of toxicology.
- Matthew D. Reed, PhD, DABT
