King of Poisons: A History of Arsenic

I am pleased to announce that Potomac Books recently published my book King of Poisons: A History of Arsenic.  The book deals with the history of arsenic broadly, with chapters on arsenic as a murder weapon, arsenic in fiction, arsenic in the workplace, arsenic in the environment and arsenic in medicine.

You can find more information about the book, as well as ordering a copy at a discount, at http://www.potomacbooksinc.com/Books/BookDetail.aspx?productID=272695.

I should note that the book is available at an even better discount when ordered online via Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
