Poisoning - New Insights

Poisoning - New Insights presents a contemporary perspective on toxicology, exploring how our understanding of poisoning has evolved in response to new scientific, clinical, and environmental challenges. This volume examines poisoning not only as an acute medical emergency but also as a complex phenomenon shaped by chronic exposures, emerging contaminants, and global health dynamics. It integrates classical toxicological principles with modern tools such as molecular diagnostics, systems toxicology, and advanced risk assessment techniques. Key topics include:
• Diagnostic innovations and antidote strategies.
• Environmental and occupational toxicology.
• Public health preparedness for chemical incidents.
• Psychological and social dimensions of poisoning.
• Low-dose and long-term exposure effects.
Designed for healthcare professionals, toxicologists, researchers, and policy-makers, this book offers a multidisciplinary overview of current trends and future directions in poisoning science. By combining evidence-based approaches with real-world case contexts, it provides essential knowledge for addressing both individual cases and population-level toxicological risks.
