Author: Editor, R.Tecwyn Williams

Selection Statement:

In this seminal work, Detoxication Mechanisms, R.Tecwyn Williams brought to light the incredible significance of xenobiotic metabolism and its impact on human health and disease. I've leafed through this book countless times and marveled at what was accomplished using lengthy, laborious approaches that today we can do in mere minutes. Many of the ideas, discoveries, and principles in Detoxication Mechanisms remain valid today and serve as reminders that there's no substitute for hard work and dogged determination.
