Omschrijving

Features: Fills a gap in toxicological, medical, and herpetological literature by providing a comprehensive review of this entire assemblage of non-front-fanged snakes, with particular attention given to their capacity to cause harm to humans. Offers a patient-centered, evidence-based approach which is applied to analyzing documented case reports of bites inflicted by a broad representation of species. Provides expanded and updated detailed information on the clinical management of medically significant bites from non-front-fanged snakes, which is also methodically reviewed, and specific recommendations are provided. Includes updates of the fluid taxonomy of advanced snakes and also of terminology with particular regard to the definition of "venom" and the nonmedical criteria used to define the biological basis of the "venomous condition" in snakes and lizards
