Summary
  1. "Providing a complete, multidisciplinary overview of the gastrointestinal system in both health and disease states, Toxicology of the Gastrointestinal Tract focuses on the specific mechanisms and adverse effects of xenobiotic agents and pharmaceuticals on the structure and function of the GI tract. The information in this volume demonstrates the increasing awareness and documentation of the multiple roles of the GI tract's many components and brings together the current and growing knowledge of this critical organ system in a single volume."--BOOK JACKET.
