The dependency of the human race on plants as renewable sources of
many foodstuffs, drugs, textiles, fuel, and building materials in
generally acknowledged. However, the harmful effects produced by
certain plant constituents, which result in an increasing incidence
of poisoning cases in the United States each year, are not so
widely appreciated. This book is not intended to be a comprehensive
treatise on all substances from plants that are lethal or otherwise
injurious to humans or livestock. Instead, owing to tremendous
recent advances in the understanding of the chemical nature of
their toxic principles, it reviews selected toxic plants which have
been hitherto inadequately documented in previous texts.
