A guide to potentially harmful plants in Hawaii, designed for both medical professionals and the general public. It describes each plant in words and photographs, identifies the plant's toxins, mechanism of injury, incidence, and signs and symptoms, and provides first aid recommendations.

A former registered nurse, Susan Scott earned a bachelor's degree in biology from the University of Hawai'i in 1985 and is a graduate of the university's Marine Option Program, where she specialized in marine science journalism. Since 1987, Susan has written the weekly "Ocean Watch" column for the Honolulu Star-Advertiser and has worked as a volunteer for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service since 1989.
