the best book on the subject September 2, 2006
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have many books on this subject
and this is exactly what i was looking for when i typed the word poisons in the search engine it is neither too scientific nor too simple "the best book on the subject" If this book doesn't live up to your expectations i do not believe there is another book that can give you more info on so many poisons.

Poisons surround us, today, more than ever. If you want a concise yet complete work on hundreds of poisons, from everyday items to exotic substances, this book is a must. In my view, no home can skip this one - the information in it can save your life, or the lives of your loved ones or pets. May you never need to use the information contained in this amazing book - but, if you ever need it, better to have it!
