Abstract

The book Os animais peçonhentos na saúde pública presents a vast history of accidents involving health problems caused by venomous animals. The authors rescue works and experiences, described by Louis Pasteur and Vital Brazil, fundamental for the development of translational science processes as understood today, in the 21st century. The work is marked by the defense of the need for coherent public policies capable of promoting training, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of patients.
