Veterinary Toxicology, Basic and Clinical Principles, Third Edition, is a unique, single reference that teaches the basic principles of veterinary toxicology to any student at the DVM, MS or PhD level. While comparable texts are primarily directed on the field of human toxicology, this text thoroughly prepares toxicologists and students on the newest approaches for diagnosing chemical and plant poisoning cases in animals. Many chapters on topics not covered in any previous books are provided, such as target organ toxicity, radiation and radioactive materials, FDA regulatory issues, and ethics in veterinary toxicology.

Completely revised and updated to include the most recent developments in the field, including new toxins, methods and regions, this book is an essential resource for advanced students and researchers in toxicology, practicing veterinary toxicologists, poison control centers, marine biologists, environmentalists and animal scientists.

• Provides a complete, up-to-date, integrated source of information on toxins and poisons relating to animals
• Covers all important aspects of veterinary toxicology with completely updated and revised chapters
• Includes basic principles of a key toxicology concept, along with clinical applications and a list of major references for further reading

A valuable clinical reference for practicing veterinary toxicologists, poison control centers, marine biologists, environmentalists and animal scientists. Its coverage of basic principles also makes it an ideal reference for advanced students entering the profession of veterinary toxicology
