RHUS DERMATITIS FROM RHUS TOXICODENDRON, RADICANS & DIVERSILORA Poison Ivy, Its Pathology & Chemotherapy is a comprehensive scientific examination of the biological and chemical properties of toxic plants and their impact on human health. James B. McNair provides a rigorous analysis of the botanical characteristics of poison ivy and its relatives, focusing specifically on the nature of the irritants produced by the Rhus genus.

The work details the clinical pathology of contact dermatitis and evaluates the historical development of chemotherapy treatments used to combat the condition. Through extensive research, McNair explores the morphology of these plants, their geographical distribution, and the precise mechanisms by which their toxins interact with human skin. This volume serves as an invaluable resource for students and practitioners of dermatology, medical botany, and the history of medicine. By synthesizing field observations with laboratory results, the text provides a foundational understanding of the relationship between toxic flora and physiological response, maintaining its status as a significant contribution to early 20th-century medical science.
