This is the final volume in a three-volume work that has addressed
the scientific methodologies relevant to clinical neurobehavioral
toxicology. Volume I focused on basic concepts and methodologies in
Neurobehavioral Toxicology, with Volume II focusing on the
peripheral nervous system. Volume III attends to what is known
about industrial and environmental chemicals, medicines, and
substances of abuse and how these agents affect the central nervous
system. All substances have the capacity to be toxic, depending on
factors that include the physical properties of the chemical or
compound, organism related variables, or interaction between the
two. These substances on the other hand and as a result of these
same factors might be used therapeutically or even recreationally.
The difference between medicine, recreational drug, or poison
depends often on a careful balance between adverse and intended
effects. How to determine that a specified substance has caused
harm is emphasized in the present volume by way of case examples
and discussion. Illnesses and behavioral variations that compete
with toxicant-induced explanations for findings in a given case, as
well as the various controversies that can arise around issues of
diagnosis and causal determination, are treated comprehensively in
this volume.
