Review :
This appears to be the most up-to-date book of its type......Overall, this would be an excellent addition to any critical care/emergency department clinician's compendium of resources on how to manage poisoned patients. The organization of the chapters flows quite well. The text is readable, and the information included is relevant, topical and up to date......It is a handy reference source and excellent for occupational physicians This book provides an excellent source of information on the theoretical and practical aspects of clinical toxicology....The 400-page book can be highly recommended to all physicians working in emergency medicine or residents in training.
