A guide to practical toxicology

the long version

A Guide to Practical Toxicology: Evaluation, Prediction and Risk looks at the importance of toxicological normality, reviews toxicity testing methods, and explores new and 'alternative' methods of safety evaluation. The book uses text boxes to give background information on specific subjects, which are supported by tables and case-studies intended to illustrate method, study design and interpretation. It reviews the interpretation of toxicity findings in individual studies and data packages and the prediction of human-relevant hazards, and reviews the final stage of the toxicological process, risk assessment and management, with particular reference to the work-place.
