Toxicologie Médicale Professionnelle & Environnementale présente une synthèse des connaissances et données toxicologiques portant sur les principales substances chimiques manipulées en milieu de travail, mais que l?on rencontre aussi dans l?environnement général. L?ouvrage fait une revue extensive des intoxications - aiguës et chroniques - professionnelles mais aborde également les thématiques intéressant la population générale comme les amalgames dentaires, le saturnisme infantile ou les risques sanitaires associés aux toxiques ± médiatiques récents (phtalates, bisphénol A, composés perfluorés?). Il apporte des informations claires, validées et utiles pour la pratique reposant sur l?analyse critique de la littérature internationale, effectuée à la lumière des 25 ans d?expérience en Toxicologie médicale de l?auteur, libre de tout conflit d?intérêt. Aujourd?hui, la difficulté n?est pas dans l?accès à l?information mais dans l?interprétation, le tri et la hiérarchisation des données - parfois contradictoires - recueillies. Le praticien doit pouvoir disposer de synthèses reposant sur l?analyse de sources fiables et intégrant les principes de la médecine fondée sur les preuves : la prise en charge des patients intoxiqués, la surveillance des travailleurs exposés tout comme l?évaluation du risque doivent reposer sur des données factuelles. Dans cette optique, il importe de ne pas confondre médecine et sciences fondamentales, faits établis et hypothèses de recherche. Ce livre s?adresse avant tout aux médecins du travail impliqués dans l?évaluation, la prévention et la surveillance du risque toxique professionnel, aux cliniciens (médecins urgentistes, spécialistes, légistes) confrontés aux intoxications aiguës et chroniques par les produits industriels, mais aussi à l?ensemble du corps médical intervenant en santé publique et en charge de la veille sanitaire.

This is a good book on upcoming areas of Ecotoxicology. The first chapter describes genotoxicity of heavy metals in plants. The second chapter offer views on chromatographic methodologies for the estimation of mycotoxin. Chapter three is on effects of xenobiotics on benthic assemblages in different habitats of Australia. Laboratory findings of genotoxins on small mammals are presented in chapter four. The fifth chapter describes bioindicators of soil quality and assessment of pesticides used in chemical seed treatments. European regulation REACH in marine ecotoxicology is described in chapter six. X-ray spectroscopic analysis for trace metal in invertebrates is presented in chapter seven. The last chapter is on alternative animal model for toxicity testing. In conclusion, this book is an excellent and well organized collection of up dated information on Ecotoxicology. The data presented in it might be a good starting point to develop research in the field of ECOTOXICOLOGY.

"Now in its fourth edition, this exceptionally accessible text provides students with a multidisciplinary perspective and a grounding in the fundamental principles required for research in toxicology today. Its concisesness and readability makes it highly popular with students, while its focus on principles makes its the preferred choice of instructors.Discussing the fundamental chemical and ecological nature of pollution processes, the authors identifiy the major classes of pollutants and their environmental fate while examining those pollutants deserving closer scrutiny. They also cover naturally occurring poisons, the history of chemical warfare, population risk assessment, community structure, neonicotinoids, endocrine disruption, neurotoxicity, and the employment of biomarker strategies in field studies. In addition to updating the text throughout, this fourth edition--Includes a new chapter on future directions of ecotoxicologyProvides new material on nanoparticle pollution and effects of chemical weaponsOffers numerous new case studies, many from the U.S.Expands coverage of bioaccumulation, biomarkers, and risk assessment for affected populations "-- "Preface to Fourth Edition Since publication of the first edition of Principles of Ecotoxicology, both David Peakall and Steve Hopkin have died--serious losses to the international scientific community. Both made key contributions to the first two editions and this fourth edition is dedicated to their memories. The origins of this book lie in the MSc course titled "Ecotoxicology of Natural Populations," first taught at Reading in 1991. Ecotoxicology was then emerging as a distinct subject of interdisciplinary character. The structure of the course reflected this characteristic and was taught by people of widely differing backgrounds ranging from chemistry and biochemistry to population genetics and ecology. Combining the different disciplines in an integrated way was something of a challenge. The experience of teaching the course persuaded the authors of the need for a textbook that would deal with the basic principles of such a wide-ranging subject. The intention has been to approach ecotoxicology in a broad interdisciplinary way, cutting across traditional subject boundaries. However, the nature of the text is bound to reflect the experiences and interests of the authors"--
