1-0 out of 5 stars Half the price at amazon.co.uk. ...
The book is sold for around 93 USD at amazon.com whereas in the UK you can purchase the book for around half the price although in both cases sold via an Amazon-company... Unfortunately, this low price is only for customers in the UK so all we others have to buy for 93 USD???

2-0 out of 5 stars A dumbed-down version of a great classic
This edition is a great disappointment after the previous editions, up to and including Edition 6. It remains useful enough, perhaps as a student text, but as a source book it's usefulness has been seriously compromised. I seriously recommend buying the 6th edition instead.

Vendor delivered the purchased used used text on time and in the condition advertised, excellent.

5-0 out of 5 stars Toxicology Guideline
This book contains important information about Toxicology. The language is clear. Two weaknesses are the lack of more illustrations and a cd-rom / dvd / rom. In all, it is an excellent book.

5-0 out of 5 stars Critically essential...
This handbook could be mistakenly seen as an abbreviated manual with simply the salient features of overdoses and poisonings listed. It is, however, a remarkable text, in and of its own right given its size. It should be considered an invaluable reference not just in medicine, but in all the health professions. Toxicities have a tradition of being managed poorly in Australia. Here is a book that can single-handedly reverse this history if it were to be widely read. I applaud the authors. ... Read more

Product Description
A thorough understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the individual expression of toxic effects provides an important tool for assessment of human health risk. New aspects, major advances, and new areas in molecular and cellular biology and toxicology demand updated sources of information to elucidate the functional mechanics of human toxicology.

Mechanistic Toxicology: The Molecular Basis of How Chemicals Disrupt Biological Targets, Second Edition retains the accessible format of the original to present the general principles that link xenobiotic-induced toxicity with the molecular pathways that underlie these toxic effects. Extensively illustrated, this book forms a conceptual bridge between multiple events at the molecular level and the determinants of toxicity at the physiological and cellular level. Specific examples of drugs, environmental pollutants, and other chemicals are carefully chosen to illustrate and highlight the fundamental mechanisms of toxicity at different toxicokinetic and toxicodynamic levels. The book includes references and review articles at the end of each chapter, as well as boxed text for relevant review information on biological, biochemical, molecular, and toxicological background. Linking molecular pathways to more general biomedical contexts, the author ensures that the reader is not lost in the details and instead receives a broad understanding of the processes underlying xenobiotic toxicity.

    Editorial Review

    Product Description
    Founded on the paradox that all things are poisons and the difference between poison and remedy is quantity, the determination of safe dosage forms the base and focus of modern toxicology. In order to make a sound determination there must be a working knowledge of the biologic mechanisms involved and of the methods employed to define these mechanisms. While the vastness of the field and the rapid accumulation of data may preclude the possibility of absorbing and retaining more than a fraction of the available information, a solid understanding of the underlying principles is essential.

    Extensively revised and updated with four new chapters and an expanded glossary, this fifth edition of the classic text, Principles and Methods of Toxicology provides comprehensive coverage in a manageable and accessible format. New topics include 'toxicopanomics', plant and animal poisons, information resources, and non-animal testing alternatives. Emphasizing the cornerstones of toxicology-people differ, dose matters, and things change, the book begins with a review of the history of toxicology and followed by an explanation of basic toxicological principles, agents that cause toxicity, target organ toxicity, and toxicological testing methods including many of the test protocols required to meet regulatory needs worldwide. The book examines each method or procedure from the standpoint of technique and interpretation of data and discusses problems and pitfalls that may be associated with each. The addition of several new authors allow for a broader and more diverse treatment of the ever-changing and expanding field of toxicology.

    Maintaining the high-quality information and organizational framework that made the previous editions so successful, Principles and Methods of Toxicology, Fifth Edition continues to be a valuable resource for the advanced practitioner as well as the new disciple of toxicology. ... Read more

    Product Description
    Extracted from the Drug Abuse Handbook, 2nd edition, to give you just the information you need at an affordable price.

    Postmortem Toxicology of Abused Drugs considers the role of toxicology in the investigation of homicide, suicide, accident, natural death, and overdose. It gives practical insights and case reviews on conducting toxicology tests and completing toxicology reports. It explains chain of custody; specimen collection and security; sampling of blood, urine, bile, and vitreous humor; and the selection of post-mortem specimens. Analyzing various testing procedures, the book covers simple chemical tests, microdiffusion tests, chromatography, spectroscopy, and more. It also discusses methods and strategies for analysis; and covers quality assurance protocols and controls. To help avoid common pitfalls, the text demonstrates the proper interpretation of postmortem drug levels based on knowledge of pharmacokinetics, metabolism, and pharmacogenetics; post-mortem redistribution and diffusion; and other considerations such as synergistic toxicity, and drug instability. Heavily referenced and containing several tables, figures, and useful appendices, this book is a handy reference for forensic scientists and medical examiners involved with death investigation. ...

    Editorial Review

    Product Description

    Highlighting latest advances in genetics and biochemistry, the completely revised Third Edition reviews the field from basic science, clinical, epidemiological, and regulatory perspectives. Contributions from top opinion leaders in the field bring together developments in molecular embryology and cell biology as they apply to problems in developmental toxicology. It covers testing of pharmaceutical and environmental agents and interpretation of developmental toxicology data, highlighting mathematical and statistical techniques, as well as the effects of toxic exposure on the functional development of various organs.



    The relationship between maternal and developmental toxicology is examined, in addition to current techniques for studying chemical disposition, metabolism, and placental transfer. Close attention is given to the regulatory aspects of testing and risk assessment. Pre- and postconceptional clinical care and genetic factors in clinical developmental toxicology are also discussed.



    Key topics include:






    • the roles of apoptosis and signal transduction pathways in normal and abnormal development

    • the role of epigenetic changes in development

    • the role of nutrition and individual susceptibility

    • the utility of bioinformatics

    • global and targeted gene expression changes
