Review title: If I could give this book negative stars, I would
Product review: I bought this because I wanted an introduction to toxicology. I should have looked at the authors' credentials more closely before I gave money to these people. One author works for "a consulting firm . . . that assists companies in the registration of human and veterinary pharmaceutical agents." In other words, big pharma. The other works for the California Dept of Public Health, in other words a captured regulatory agency. The whole book is just a great example of industry propaganda, systematically underplaying the risks of toxics. A very bad book.
