Poisons: Around and Inside. A Guide to the Most Dangerous Substances on the Planet

Chemical substances. So incomprehensible, invisible, and sometimes capable of killing us. We often encounter them in our daily lives, but we don't even know what dangers they may pose to us. Toxins in food, contaminated water, unsafe substances in medicines, and toxic compounds even in the air. What poisons exist in nature, and which ones were created by humans? What substances have killed thousands of people, and which have healed them? Where does death lurk, and how can we protect ourselves from it? You will find the answers to these questions in this book.
