"Everything is poison, and nothing is without poison; only one dose makes the poison imperceptible," said the famous Renaissance scientist and physician Paracelsus. The annals of mankind are filled with fatal pages of cruel poisonings. The ancient world, the Renaissance, the Age of Enlightenment, modern times... At all times, poisonous substances have become weapons of cowards and scoundrels, fanatics and maniacs, executioners and arbiters of fate. All this is reflected in a unique book - the first complete history of poisons. Its heroes are Cleopatra and Nero, Socrates and Hannibal, Gorky and Zola, Stalin and Peter I... And the stage of this endless, cruel and exciting performance is the whole world.
