Fundamentals of Toxicologic Pathology focuses on providing basic information integrated from both toxicology and pathology dealing with the mechanisms of toxic injury and morphologic expression of that injury at the subcellular, cellular, and tissue levels. This text is an enhanced and edited version of the Handbook of Toxicologic Pathology, creating a more concise and affordable text ideal for graduate students of toxicologic pathology and scientists working in academia or industry.
@introbul:Key Features
@bul:* Fills the need for a basic textbook in toxicologic pathology
* Addresses basic principles of toxicologic pathology and deals systematically with organ-specific injuries
* Provides the student a glimpse of lesions caused by toxicants, and whenever possible, to elaborate on the mechanisms which cause those lesions

"The editors have succeeded in producing a very readable, basic textbook of current toxicologic pathology...The book provides many high quality, well labeled reproductions of light and electron micrographs...This book will be an excellent resource for graduate students in toxicology, pathology, and environmental health studies. It provides a thorough organ system based overview of current knowledge and fundamental principles of toxicologic pathology, devoid of the detailed treatment of descriptive morphology and mechanisms provided in reference texts."—CHOICE
