    Check out this new resource from Irwin Law, an imprint of the University of Toronto Press!


    Information provided on the University of Toronto Press' website:

    Wigmore on Carbon Monoxide offers a compelling exploration of the history and medicolegal aspects of carbon monoxide, humanity’s ancient and silent killer. Odourless, non-irritating, and invisible, carbon monoxide (CO) has haunted human civilization since the discovery of fire. For centuries, unexplained nighttime deaths were attributed to witchcraft or demons, rather than the insidious effects of poor ventilation and combustion.

    Despite advances in technology, CO poisoning remains a persistent threat today, arising from water heaters, gas stoves, charcoal barbecues, Zambonis, camp stoves, tent heaters, diesel generators, and power washers. Wigmore on Carbon Monoxide provides a comprehensive, well-organized, and thought-provoking examination of this deadly gas, tracing its impact on humans from antiquity to the present. Backed by over 600 studies, long-time forensic toxicologist James G. Wigmore presents complex information in an easily understandable manner for professionals such as lawyers, judges, scientists, coroners, unexplained death investigators, police officers, and students.
