Interest and information in the field of medical toxicology has grown rapidly, but there has never been a concise, authoritative reference focused on the subjects of natural substances, chemical and physical toxins, drugs of abuse, and pharmaceutical overdoses. Medical Toxicology of Natural Substances finally gives you an easily accessible resource for vital toxicological information on foods, plants, and animals in key areas in the natural environment.

This book provides a broad reference covering important drugs of abuse including amphetamines, opiates, and steroids. It also covers psychoactive plants such as caffeine, peyote, and psilocybin. It provides chemical structures, analytical methods, clinical features, and treatments of these drugs of abuse, serving as a highly useful, in-depth supplement to a general medical toxicology book. The style allows for the easy application of the contents to searchable databases and other electronic products, making this an essential resource for practitioners in medical toxicology, industrial hygiene, occupational medicine, pharmaceuticals, environmental organizations, pathology, and related fields.

Interest in the field of medical toxicology has grown rapidly, but the medical literature lacks an authoritative toxicology reference work dedicated to natural substances and drugs of abuse. This two-volume set combines Medical Toxicology of Natural Substances and Medical Toxicology of Drugs Abuse to deliver an in-depth, sub-specialty, readily accessible reference on these topics. Professionals in diverse fields, who typically do not need most of the information in a general medical toxicology book, can quickly apply the contents of these volumes to searchable databases and other electronic venues.

In-depth, evidence-based resource covering important toxins affecting human health and safety Medical Toxicology of Occupational and Environmental Exposures presents crucial information on various important toxins that affect human health and safety, focusing on their chemical structures, analytical methods, clinical features, and comprehensive treatment options. Organized across three volumes, it provides comprehensive and insightful information for clinicians, students, and investigators with interests in metals, radiation, and cancer. The interdisciplinary, evidence-based approach of the work is designed to reach beyond clinical settings to increase the scientific understanding of those in associated fields. To allow for quick reference, the information is presented in a consistent and easy-to-read format. Additional information is readily available to the interested reader through the detailed bibliographies included at the end of each chapter. Volume 1—Metals and metalloids, such as arsenic, lead, mercury, and rare earth metals Volume 2—Radiation, including ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, radiation physics, radiation prevention, radiation diagnosis and treatment, and cosmic radiation Volume 3—Cancer-causing exposures, histology, host susceptibility, and clinical features—using an organ-based approach to allow for seamless reader comprehensionToxicologists, physicians, and many other professionals working in fields that intersect with human health and safety, especially those in leadership positions making decisions regarding metals, radiation, and chemical carcinogens, can use Medical Toxicology of Occupational and Environmental Exposures as a practical everyday reference to understand many important toxins found in our world that often affect our bodies in a negative manner.

Medical Toxicology of Occupational and Environmental Exposures is the only reference which comprehensively covers the clinical, analytical, and monitoring information needed by clinicians, students and investigators with interests in metals, radiation, and cancer. The information in all chapters is presented in a cogent, standardized format which greatly simplifies the use of the text as a reference. Reviewed by a distinguished panel of well-known toxicology experts, the information is critically evaluated and authoritative. The interdisciplinary, evidence-based approach is designed to reach beyond clinical settings to increase the scientific understanding of those in associated fields (analytical laboratories, universities, federal and state regulatory and environmental agencies) involved with decisions regarding metals, radiation, and chemical carcinogens. The consistent and concise style allows the reader to quickly locate the appropriate information necessary for informed decisions regarding the sources, host susceptibility, dose-response, clinical effect, health surveillance, and management of exposures to these substances. Additional information is readily available to the interested reader through the detailed bibliography at the end of each chapter.Volume 1 "Metals and Metalloids: Clinical Assessment, Diagnostic Tests, and Therapeutics" is written to be clinically-oriented with a consistent template, allowing easier access to detailed information on specific metals.
