Lehrbuch der Toxikologie für Tierärzte

A thorough, early‑twentieth‑century reference, this work gathers the essential facts a practising veterinarian needs when confronting animal poisonings. Written with a clear eye toward everyday clinical decisions, it stitches together experimental insights, case reports and the author’s own observations into a single, accessible volume. The text respects its historic roots, preserving the original terminology while correcting typographic slips, so listeners get a sense of the era’s scientific language.

The first part explains the basic principles of toxic action, from how poisons affect nerve cells to the ways blood‑borne toxins break down. The second half moves quickly into the practical world of plant, mineral and animal poisons most likely to appear in livestock and pets, offering details on symptoms, post‑mortem findings, detection methods and first‑aid treatments. Richly illustrated with real‑world examples, the book remains a valuable guide for anyone needing solid, methodical advice on animal toxicology.
