Hayes'' Principles and Methods of Toxicology

Hayes' Principles and Methods of Toxicology has long been established as a reliable reference to the concepts, methodologies, and assessments integral to toxicology. The new sixth edition has been revised and updated while maintaining the same high standards that have made this volume a benchmark resource in the field. With new authors and new chapters that address the advances and developments since the fifth edition, the book presents everything toxicologists and students need to know to understand hazards and mechanisms of toxicity, enabling them to better assess risk. The book begins with the four basic principles of toxicology-dose matters, people differ, everything transforms, and timing is crucial. The contributors discuss various agents of toxicity, including foodborne, solvents, crop protection chemicals, radiation, and plant and animal toxins. They examine various methods for defining and measuring toxicity in a host of areas, including genetics, carcinogenicity, toxicity in major body systems, and the environment. This new edition contains an expanded glossary reflecting significant changes in the field. New topics in this edition include: The importance of dose-response Systems toxicology Food safety The humane use and care of animals Neurotoxicology The comprehensive coverage and clear writing style make this volume an invaluable text for students and a one-stop reference for professionals.

Additional text

"There are several outstanding features of this book. Its strong suit is its organization, which is flawless in its transition from one chapter to the next. The methodologies in several chapters to assess toxicity are very detailed and a useful resource for toxicologists. This book also captures the advances in technology in a chapter on toxicopanomics which is important for toxicologists to understand to move the field of mechanistic toxicology forward. Each chapter is accompanied by a few questions that can help readers review their understanding and give them an edge in their preparation for the Diplomate of the American Board of Toxicology (DABT) certification. ... This is a comprehensive resource for toxicology students and practitioners and is the only book that focuses in detail on the concepts, methodologies, and assessments integral to toxicology. This much-needed update incorporates the advances and developments in the field."—Hemantkumar D. Chavan, Ph.D., University of Kansas Medical Center, in Doody's Book Reviews
