Trade Review

From the book reviews:

“I found this to be an excellent text book, in fact one of the best I have referred to in recent times. Whether one is a non-toxicologist seeking an overview of the subject or an Industrial Toxicologist working every day to tackle the issues of product development, there is something for everybody. … This book should be a point of reference for any modern toxicologist – it will be for me!” (Jim Ridings, bts News Magazine of The British Toxicology Society, Vol. 1 (2), September, 2014)
