Reflecting the broad and interdisciplinary nature of toxicology,
this third edition of Principles of Toxicology explores the
biochemical, physiological, and environmental aspects of the
subject. This new edition is updated and revised to include
reference to several major new directions in the science of
toxicology, including significant changes in thinking about cancer
and carcinogenesis as well as the rapid expansion of
toxicogenomics. The book also includes new chapters on topics of
timely interest such as radiation, food safety, and natural toxins.
As in previous editions, chapters combine background material in
the appropriate discipline-which helps readers review and remember
the basics-with new information on toxicology to stress key
principles and concepts. Also included is a selection of updated
case studies through which principles and concepts are applied to
real-world issues. The book features an extensive cross-referencing
system linking all sections and enhancing the integration of
material, thus helping readers tie it all together. It also
includes an appendix of selected toxicants that describes chemical
structure, category of use, and toxicity. These features make
specific information quick and easy to find. The easy-to-follow
format and clear presentation of information in this book will make
this one of the most useful references on your shelf.
The Local Group of galaxies consists of the Milky Way and all of
its neighbours. The proximity of these galaxies allows for detailed
studies of the processes that have led to their formation,
structures, and evolution. In particular, studies of the Local
Group can test predictions of structure formation that are based on
dark energy and cold dark matter. This book presents a collection
of review papers, written by world experts, on some of the most
important aspects of Local Group Astrophysics. It is an invaluable
resource for both professional researchers and graduate students in
this fascinating area of research.
