TIMBRELL'S TOXICOLOGY IS A WINNER

This book is suitable for all undergraduates on either Pharmacology or Toxicology- single or joint honours. The wording is simple;his message, short and sharp. The content is not too dense, and, unlike the other textbooks, does not assume that the student has already acquired an authoritative grasp of the underlying principles- a step-by-step approach is Professor Timbrell's style, which makes this book a very effective read before moving on to the more advanced texts, of which there is no shortage of in the library. It is possible to read the whole book in a week so it makes a very effective companion for a quick revision of the lecture notes for those of us who left it till the last minute!
