Medical Toxicology: Occupational and Environmental Exposures
by Donald G. Barceloux
2025 · John Wiley & Sons
Medical Toxicology of Occupational and Environmental Exposures is the only reference which comprehensively covers the clinical, analytical, and monitoring information needed by clinicians, students and investigators with interests in metals, radiation, and cancer. The information in all chapters is presented in a cogent, standardized format which greatly simplifies the use of the text as a reference. Reviewed by a distinguished panel of well-known toxicology experts, the information is critically evaluated and authoritative. The interdisciplinary, evidence-based approach is designed to reach beyond clinical settings to increase the scientific understanding of those in associated fields (analytical laboratories, universities, federal and state regulatory and environmental agencies) involved with decisions regarding metals, radiation, and chemical carcinogens. The consistent and concise style allows the reader to quickly locate the appropriate information necessary for informed decisions regarding the sources, host susceptibility, dose-response, clinical effect, health surveillance, and management of exposures to these substances. Additional information is readily available to the interested reader through the detailed bibliography at the end of each chapter. Volume 1 “Metals and Metalloids: Clinical Assessment, Diagnostic Tests, and Therapeutics” is written to be clinically-oriented with a consistent template, allowing easier access to detailed information on specific metals.
Interest and information in the field of medical toxicology has grown rapidly, but there has never been a concise, authoritative reference focused on the subjects of natural substances, chemical and physical toxins, drugs of abuse, and pharmaceutical overdoses. Medical Toxicology of Natural Substances finally gives you an easily accessible resource for vital toxicological information on foods, plants, and animals in key areas in the natural environment.
