Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I teach toxicology to physicians. It is tough to bridge both the theoretical side and the clinical side and not be too boring. This book is about as good as there is out there, but it is a little irregular in depth. But it is readable.
Hazardous Material Toxicology by Sullivan and Krieger is great for physicians but is thin on the theoretical aspects.
Cassaret and Doull is better suited for full time toxicologists and people with insomnia.

A Textbook of Modern Toxicology is a unique resource that provides both students and practitioners with a wide-ranging, accessible overview of the discipline. Suitable for courses in environmental, pharmacological, medical, and veterinary toxicology, this essential text features chapters written by experts who address a range of key topics.
The Fourth Edition includes additional chapters on new approaches to toxicology - molecular methods (-omics: toxicogenomics, proteomics, and metabolomics), bioinformatics, and systems biology – and continues the legacy of its predecessors to provide up-to-date insights into acute toxicity and chemical carcinogenesis, organ toxicity, in vitro and in vivo toxicity testing, ecological risk assessment, and many other areas of toxicology that help foster a solid comprehension of the field.
Also featured in the Fourth Edition are end-of-chapter questions and a Solutions Manual available separately for academic adopters.
