By Jurg Meier and Julian White

The Handbook of Clinical Toxicology of Animal Venoms is a concise, one-volume book devoted to this important subject. All aspects of the topic are covered including information on the biology and taxonomy of poisonous animals, their venom or poison, diagnosis, and general treatment principles and specific treatment. A comprehensive list of available antivenoms is also provided. Coverage of venomous and poisonous animals is comprehensive, and individual chapters focus on snakes and snakebite in specific regions. No other book brings together such a wealth of information in this field, or provides it in a format useful to clinicians responsible for treating envenomed or poisoned patients.
