Description
The Handbook of Pesticide Toxicology is a comprehensive, two-volume reference guide to the properties, effects, and regulation
of pesticides that provides the latest and most complete information to researchers investigating the environmental, agricultural, veterinary,
and human-health impacts of pesticide use. Written by international experts from academia, government, and the private sector, the Handbook
of Pesticide Toxicology is an in-depth examination of critical issues related to the need for, use of, and nature of chemicals used in
modern pest management. This updated third edition carries on the book?s tradition of serving as the definitive reference on pesticide
toxicology and recognizies the seminal contribution of Wayland J. Hayes, Jr., co-Editor of the first edition.
Audience
Libraries and institutions, hospitals, medical wholesalers. Researchers in toxicology, agriculture and public health.
