Reflecting the embryonic state of the field, the first edition of
Dermatoxicology, published in 1977, numbered 567 pages. Now the
foundational reference in dermal toxicology, this seventh edition
consists of 1,032 pages and defines what was once a largely
intuitive field but has evolved into an established science of
metrics and mechanisms. Updated and expanded to reflect the latest
developments, the seventh edition includes fundamental information
on the mechanisms of action of toxic substances on the skin and
practical information on the many methods for evaluating dermal
toxicity. Unparalleled in its coverage and broad in scope, with the
addition of 34 new chapters, this volume keeps pace with the
expanding science. A perennial bestseller, this definitive text
explores the latest developments in the field. With contributions
from leading international experts, it continues the tradition of
providing unsurpassed theoretical and practical guidance.
