Book Descripti**:
The purpose of this book is to provide the user with a c**cise summary of the physical properties, detecti** methods, handling precauti**s and of the biochemical and physiological effects of gases and fumes found in the working envir**ment so that they may be handled safely.
The substances dealt with in this book vary c**siderably in their properties, whether it be chemical, physical or physiological, and as a c**sequence in the risks they pose to health and safety and the c**diti**s demanded of staff and workplaces which handle them. It is therefore important not **ly to be able to identify both the gases and fumes themselves, but the dangers which they pose and the c**sequent measures necessary to deal with those dangers, whether it be as a precauti**ary measure or in resp**se to an incident. For these reas**s the availability of the data c**tained in this extremely useful book will be of vital importance to all staff ** sites where such substances are used as well as too those who may need to react to an accident involving their use such as fire-fighters, doctors, nurses, paramedics and other emergency resp**se staff
