From the reviews:
"'Hormesis: a revolution in biology, toxicology and medicine' is a very interesting and well- written book organized by two expressive authors in neuroscience and the health environment. ... The book is divided into 10 chapters, each written by a group of authors, describing the concept of hormesis ... . book concludes by proposing a fresh look at the modern pharmacy of natural products and man-made drugs. It is a pleasant read for anyone interested in toxicology, environmental health and pharmacology." (Tania Marcourakis, Brazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, May, 2010)
"This book argues that hormesis (biphasic dose-response patterns) is an underlying process at all levels of biological organization. ... The book appears to be written for risk assessors and researchers interested in dose-response relationships and cellular signaling pathways. ... Physically, the book is nicely laid out with high-quality illustrations that enhance the text. The concept of the hormetic dose-response curve is worth further study, and may well lead to advances in pharmacology and other biomedical applications." (Jennifer Gervais, Doody's Review Service, February, 2011)
