These volumes present the results of two studies undertaken for the Directorate General of Employment, Social Affairs and Education of the Commission of the European Communities. The aim was to review available data concerning the metabolism of a selection of toxic chemi­ cals in man and to develop mathematical models representing this meta­ bolism. Volume 1 is the report from the first study and presents re­ views of the data for each of the substances and proposes models for their metabolic behaviour. Volume 2 is the report of the second study and contains a review of new data relevant to the development of meta­ bolic models for each substance. The modelling of uptake and retention by the two major routes of uptake (the respiratory system and the gas­ trointestinal tract) is also reviewed. The implementation of the models in a computer code is described and results are presented illus­ trating organ concentrations and rates of excretion for typical regimes of exposure. vi 1 Foreword This report contains the results of a study undertaken by Associated Nuclear Services (ANS) for the Directorate General of Employment, Social Affairs and Education of the Commission of the European Communities (CEC). This study was entitled "Models for the Metabolism of Chemical Carcinogens in Man". vii 2 Summary This report includes results of a review of the metabolism of selected actual and potential human carcinogens and proposals for pharmacokinetic models to represent that metabolism.

In any textbook, basic scientific knowledge, and the art of clinical practice should be brought together in a rational manner and this volume on cardio­ vascular therapy attempts to achieve this aim. It deals with five selected areas - hypertension, angina and coronary artery disease, heart failure and anticoa­ gulant therapy. Clearly not all branches of cardiovascular therapeutics could be included; a separate section on anti-arrhythmic drugs is noticeably absent but it is proposed that this omission will be rectified in other volumes in the series. In general, textbooks on therapeutics tend to be ephemeral; as new discoveries are made and evaluated, medical practice changes. This volume then summarizes current opinion up to mid 1984 and gives, we believe, a reasoned account of present views. The contributors are all clinical pharma­ cologists with a wealth of clinical experience. The therapeutic advice given is well founded and the underlying scientific basis is clearly explained. The book is aimed at postgraduates, but should the undergraduate care to dip into it, we hope he will be informed and thereby educated. A. Breckenridge vii Series Editor's Note The last few decades have seen an explosion in our knowledge of cardiovas­ cular disease as a result of research in many disciplines. The tempo of research is ever increasing, so that it is becoming more and more difficult for one person to encompass the whole spectrum of the advances taking place on many fronts.
