Description
A tour of 50 of the most toxic species of plants and fungi - lavishly illustrated, with information on the effects of each plant, and peppered with stories of some of the world's most high-profile cases of poisoning. Discover how we have harnessed the power of the planet's deadliest plants to create cutting-edge medicines, and how others have been used for centuries for recreational and ritual purposes. The images range in style from neo-gothic to traditional and naturalistic vintage botanical illustrations.
