Acute and Sub-acute Toxicology

This book fills the need for a short but comprehensive text on acute and sub-acute toxicology, which at present is only partially covered by chapters in multi-disciplinary books. Dr Brown discusses the toxic effects of products on vertebrates (including Man) and outlines the biochemical, physiological and quantitative principles involved. He provides a balanced and detailed account of the scientific basis of predictive acute and sub-acute toxicology as it is practised during the development of new products.
