As with the previous editions, Introduction to Toxicology, Fourth Edition, continues to chart the evolution of the field of toxicology, from the use of natural toxins by ancient tribes through the developments established by Paracelsus, and progresses through to the current topics in the public interest. For centuries, the study of toxicology has fascinated students. The book begins with basic toxicological principles, including an historical summary, dose-response relationships (NEW chapter), exposure-response relationships (NEW chapter), disposition, and metabolism of xenobiotic toxic substances. Other important new chapters include target organ toxicity, toxicity of carcinogenic agents and new and updated concepts in toxicity testing, and antidotes and treatment of poisonings. In all, nine new or expanded chapters from the third edition are advanced. Current concerns about the effects of therapeutic drugs, carcinogens, industrial toxins, pesticides, and herbicides on human health, animal welfare, and the stability and maintenance of the ecosystem continue to highlight toxicology as an important and growing scientific discipline. This book successfully condenses the diffuse literature in the field into an accessible and readable text, made easier with the insertion of many tables and figures. It introduces fundamental concepts and builds upon these using topical and relevant historical examples. Its improved format includes learning objectives and summaries of each chapter, as well as questions and answers suitable for self-assessment. This latest edition is an invaluable resource for undergraduate and graduate toxicology students, as well as an introductory text for other health care students and professionals. The book also functions as a comprehensive introductory reference text for environmental scientists, medical biologists and chemists, chemical engineers, and regulatory agencies, with interests in toxicologically related areas.

Partant du constat que peu de données existent sur les enjeux de la transition écologique propres à l'odontologie, l'auteur a souhaité explorer ce champ de recherche et apporter une approche scientifique sur le sujet. Ce livre présente les résultats du bilan carbone d'un cabinet. Il s'agit d'un travail inédit qui donne des ordres de grandeurs, parfois inattendus, et qui permet de définir des priorités dans les actions à mener. Les praticiens trouveront de nombreuses clés pour comprendre les défis auxquels la profession est confrontée, ainsi que des solutions concrètes à mettre en place au quotidien (transport, équipements, chauffage, climatisation, électricité et numérique...). Cet ouvrage est destiné aux orthodontistes, mais il s'adresse également aux chirurgiens-dentistes, car la plus grande partie de l'ouvrage n'est pas spécifique à l'orthodontie. Il apporte une base de réflexion pour orienter notre profession vers une pratique plus durable. Après un externat à Reims et un internat en ODF à Paris, Justin Oosthoek a été assistant hospitalo-universitaire et a exercé dans sa spécialité à Paris. Se consacrant à des projets en lien avec la transition écologique, il poursuit des études sur l'approche systémique de ces enjeux à CentraleSupélec
