Review
Praise for the First Edition:
"This three-volume encyclopedia covers basic, critical, and controversial elements in toxicology, i.e. those elements that are essential to an understanding of the subject's scientific underpinnings and societal ramifications. As such, it covers not only key concepts such as dose response, mechanism of action, testing procedures, endpoint responses, and target sites, but also individual chemicals and classes of chemicals. Although the reference has a strong chemical emphasis, it also looks at concepts such as radiation and noise, history, laws, regulation, education, organizations, and databases. The entries are alphabetically arranged and extensively cross-referenced. The index is in Volume III."
