Toxicology and risk assessment

"Toxicology is concerned with the health risks of human exposure to chemicals. It describes the adverse effects of chemicals in a qualitative sense, and with evaluating them quantitatively by determining how much of a chemical is required to produce a given response." "Toxicology and Risk Assessment is an essential text for scientists in academia, industry and government agencies who want to understand how our bodies respond to toxicants, and the principles used to assess the health risks of specific exposure scenarios."--Jacket.
