This book is a rich source of information on skin disorders due to
toxicants in the environment. State of the art knowledge is
summarized concerning the molecular basis of skin damage caused by
well-appreciated environmental noxae. The book also provides a
uniquely comprehensive overview of the detrimental dermatological
effects of exposure to air pollution and global climate change. A
special focus is contact allergy, which, beyond representing a
major problem in dermatotoxicology, serves as a prime example for
the development of toxicological approaches to risk assessment. A
further chapter is devoted to contact urticaria, a condition that
can progress to life-threatening anaphylactic reactions. The novel
information offered in this book will enable the reader to go
beyond the traditional thinking of dermatotoxicology and achieve a
modern appreciation of the highly complex interplay between skin
and environment.
