Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Great update of a classic text.

⭐Complicated Indexing makes this highly valued text less useful than its hardcover counterpart. Referenced in great detail, the incidence and prevalence of these toxicities is rather limited, and confidence is expressed as “certain, probable or possible.” Within these limitations, the book provides direct information which otherwise would be hard to find on the Internet.
