Neurotoxicity is epidemic in modern society. While in recent years there has been an explosion of basic toxicological research concerning neurotoxicity, this information has not been translated for clinical practice. As a result, health professionals are in the dark as to the potential causes of neurotoxicity, the signs and symptoms, and the treatment. The Neurotoxicity Guidebook, 2nd Edition will provide an overview of the field of applied neurotoxicology, in-depth case reports showing a method for evaluating cases of neurotoxicity, in-depth coverage of some specific neurotoxic agents, and an introduction to treating neurotoxicity cases.
