Neurotoxicology, Third Edition
Neurotoxicology, Third Edition by G. Jean Harry, published by Taylor & Francis on March 9, 2010, is a comprehensive resource that delves into the study of neurotoxicology. This edition offers an integrated approach to understanding how organisms respond to environmental changes and the impact of chemical exposure on neurological functions. Spanning 334 pages, it addresses a range of effects, including learning deficits, sensory disturbances, muscle weakness, and symptoms resembling neurodegenerative disorders.
Readers will find detailed discussions on the sites and mechanisms of neurotoxicity, which are crucial for formulating testable hypotheses regarding the effects of neurotoxicants. The book also emphasizes the importance of improving the risk assessment process in the context of pharmacology and toxicology. With its focus on the intersection of neuroscience and chemistry, this edition serves as a valuable reference for those interested in the life sciences and the implications of chemical exposure on neurological health.
Official synopsis Publisher
This new edition presents an integrated approach to neurotoxicology, the study of organisms’ responses to changes in their environment and how interruption of the flow of information by chemical exposure causes a wide range of effects – from learning deficits, sensory disturbances in the extremities, and muscle weakness to seizures and signs similar to neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s disease. It is an essential resource for understanding the sites and mechanisms of neurotoxicity, for formulating testable hypotheses about the effects of neurotoxicants, and for improving the risk assessment process.
