Book Description
Deadly toxins have fascinated humans since prehistoric times. This text draws on the accumulated wisdom of centuries and modern science to provide informative descriptions of more than 600 toxic substances from adder venom to the poisonous spines of the weaver fish, together with symptoms experienced by the victims of various poisons and suggested treatments. Harmful food bacteria, the dangerous poisons and drugs held in most households today, insects and insecticides, asbestos and toxic plants and flowers are all included in this guide to identifying, avoiding and treating accidental poisoning. Entries are arranged by common names, with Latin names in parentheses, and are extensively cross-referenced.
