About the Book

This comprehensive one-volume guide and standard reference work has been newly revised and expanded to present information on teratogenic agents in a ready-reference format. The tenth edition includes nearly 400 newly listed agents, approximately half of which are developmental genes that cause syndromes or congenital defects. It also reviews recent literature on clinical and experimental teratology, including important Japanese literature not easily available to researchers. This edition emphasizes human data and covers pharmaceuticals, chemicals, environmental pollutants, food additives, household products, and viruses. A special effort has been made to obtain as much information as possible on drugs and other agents to which pregnant women may be exposed. Substances are listed alphabetically, and each entry briefly summarizes research procedures and results. As in previous editions, a complete list of references is included for each agent.

Review :
"A book that is familiar to many teratologists and should be familiar to all... The first edition of the catalog was a noble achievement and the subsequent editions have each embodied major improvements. [Shepard] deserves our support and help in continuing to update, improve, and expand hoped-for future editions." -- Teratology, reviewing a previous edition or volume "A useful and exhaustive key to the literature." -- Journal of the American Pharmaceutical Association, reviewing a previous edition or volume "A well written and authoritative resource of valuable information." -- Veterinary and Human Toxicology "Champions of the electronic age claim that reference books are now outdated, to be replaced by online databases and CD-ROMs...This new edition of a well-known and comprehensive catalog shows that there is still a place for high quality, well indexed, and up-to-date reference books... I would recommend this book for its breadth of entries and clarity of presentation. It shows that there is still a place for a good book in a world of electronic information." -- Journal of Medical Genetics, reviewing a previous edition or volume "It is good news that Johns Hopkins University Press continues to support frequent new editions of this classic reference. I have no reservations about coming up with the price of the book every three years or so. There is many a journal the subscription price of which far exceeds $30/year that does not get a fraction of the use of my Shepard." -- Anthony R.
