abstract: While medical science continues to be shaped and molded by politico-economic and regulatory pressures, clinical toxicologists should possess basic understanding of legal system and terminology to further the interests of professional standing and contribution to better public health. A basic knowledge of law will be advantageous to promote clinical toxicology in the political and public arena.
