Verstraete (clinical chemistry, microbiology, and immunology, Ghent U. Hospital, Belgium) and 13 contributors explain the effects of drugs on human performance and argue the case for workplace drug testing. They also address global regulatory and legal frameworks, how to establish policies, drug analysis, and interpretation of results — as well as urine and alternative sample collection procedures and specimen adulteration. Case studies of successful testing programs are included. (Annotation ©2011 Book News Inc. Portland, OR)
