This new edition presents an integrated approach to
neurotoxicology, the study of organisms' responses to changes in
their environment and how interruption of the flow of information
by chemical exposure causes a wide range of effects - from learning
deficits, sensory disturbances in the extremities, and muscle
weakness to seizures and signs similar to neurodegenerative
disorders such as Parkinson's or Alzheimer's disease. It is an
essential resource for understanding the sites and mechanisms of
neurotoxicity, for formulating testable hypotheses about the
effects of neurotoxicants, and for improving the risk assessment
process.
Key topics include:
completely revised content with new contributors and new
illustrations, including a full-color insertnew
state-of-the-science technologiesnew areas of research and
alternative model systemsup-to-date coverage of epidemiology, model
systems, mechanisms of action, assessment of risk, and cellular
approaches to neurotoxicologymetabolic influences on
