古代毒理学，第二版（EPUB）

古代毒理学为研究古代毒素和毒药的使用提供了权威和迷人的探索。它汇集了之前出版的关于这个主题的两本较短的书，并添加了大量新信息。作为毒理学和环境健康历史系列的一部分，它涵盖了毒理学广泛领域的关键成就、科学家和事件，包括环境健康和化学品安全。这第一卷为这个系列奠定了基调，从一开始就开始了，从历史上讲，着眼于古代的毒理学。
这本书解释说，在科学研究方法发展之前，毒理学作为一门非常实用的学科蓬勃发展。生活在古代文明中的人们很容易学会区分安全物质和危险物质，如何避免这些危险物质，以及如何使用它们来伤害敌人。它还描述了编写有毒物质简编的学者。本版的新章节主要集中于使用源自宗教文本的有毒物质的证据。

Toxicology in Antiquity, 2nd Edition (EPUB)
oxicology in Antiquity provides an authoritative and fascinating exploration into the use of toxins and poisons in antiquity. It brings together the two previously published shorter volumes on the topic, as well as adding considerable new information. Part of the History of Toxicology and Environmental Health series, it covers key accomplishments, scientists, and events in the broad field of toxicology, including environmental health and chemical safety. This first volume sets the tone for the series and starts at the very beginning, historically speaking, with a look at toxicology in ancient times.
The book explains that before scientific research methods were developed, toxicology thrived as a very practical discipline. People living in ancient civilizations readily learned to distinguish safe substances from hazardous ones, how to avoid these hazardous substances, and how to use them to inflict harm on enemies. It also describes scholars who compiled compendia of toxic agents. New chapters in this edition focus chiefly on evidence for the use of toxic agents derived from religious texts.
