Thomas Tanner distilled the toxicologist's craft into memoranda a physician could reach for in a hurry: how poisons act, how to spot them, what duties follow. His concise handbook served the sickroom and the coroner alike. A practical period reference in the science of poisoning. Keep company with the notes doctors once kept close.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
