Editorial Reviews

Booknews

A revision of the respected 1980 edition. It provides an updated synthesis and perspective on the field of genetic toxicology. Brusick treats the origins and fundamentals, consequences of genotoxic effects, screening chemicals for genotoxicity, risk estimation, human and environmental monitoring, the proper lab, details and evaluation of assays, biotechnology research's applicability, and the study of congenital malformations. Originally published in 1830 (John Murray, London), Lyell's methods and views were central to Darwin's thinking as he developed the theory of evolution through natural selection. Volume 1 begins Lyell's argument for uniformitarianism, the view that processes now visibly acting in the natural world are essentially the same as those that have acted throughout the history of the earth. This facsimile of the first edition adds a new introduction by Martin J.S. Rudwick. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
