520 _aA practical guide to a selection of plants and mushrooms with toxic properties which can be found in New Zealand. With a particular focus on plants which are of concern for children, the emphasis is on safety through education, to help you understand the risks so that you can avoid them. There is advice on what to do if you think you or your child has eaten something poisonous, and a section on Toxic Mechanisms - how the poisons act on the human body, the signs and symptoms of poisoning, and the treatment likely to be necessary. More that a dry text-book this book is enlivened with historical background and quirky folklore, and comprehensively illustrated with colour photographs by Adrienne Farr of Manaaki Whenua Press.
