For more than 45 years, Casarett and Doull’s Toxicology has set the standard for providing thorough, academic, and authoritative information in clear and engaging ways. Focusing only on what you need to know and written on a level you can easily understand, it provides a concise yet comprehensive look at the science and clinical field of medical toxicology. This new edition builds on the wide success of previous editions, with extensive updates that make the book more clinically relevant to students and beginners in toxicology, pharmacology, pharmacy, and environmental sciences. Chapter-ending self-assessment Q&As and other features make the learning process more effective and efficient.
