Written to bridge the gap between toxicology and chemistry, this book concentrates on the chemical formulas, structures and reactions of toxic substances. The book provides brief introductions to toxicology, chemistry, organic chemistry and biochemistry, so that readers without substantial expertise in one or more areas can still understand the remainder of the book. To retain a chemical emphasis, the book is organized on the basis of classes of inorganic and organic substances. The book is aimed at toxicologists, chemists, engineers, industrial hygienists, research laboratory personnel dealing with hazardous and toxic substances, and people working on the disposal and elimination of hazardous substances.
