SUMMARY:Nonfiction Book Group: The Poisoner's Handbook
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion of The Poisoner's Handbook by Deborah
 Blum. Copies are available at the Circulation Desk and in our
 eLibrary.\n\nWe will meet in-person in the Reading Room. Please register if
 you would like to receive a reminder.\n\nThe untold story of how poison
 rocked Jazz Age New York City. A pair of forensic scientists began their
 trailblazing chemical detective work\, fighting to end an era when
 untraceable poisons offered an easy path to the perfect crime. Chief
 medical examiner Charles Norris and toxicologist Alexander Gettler
 investigate a family mysteriously stricken bald\, factory workers with
 crumbling bones\, a diner serving poisoned pies\, and many others. Each
 case presents a deadly new puzzle and Norris and Gettler create
 revolutionary experiments to tease out even the wiliest compounds from
 human tissue. From the vantage of their laboratory it also becomes clear
 that murderers aren't the only toxic threat--modern life has created a kind
 of poison playground\, and danger lurks around every
 corner.\n\nRegistration Required: please visit the library calendar to
 register.
