Summary: "Venomous Arthropod Handbook: Envenomization Symptoms/Treatment, Identification, Biology and Control" by Terry L. Biery is a scientific publication written in the late 20th century. This handbook serves as a comprehensive reference guide for Air Force medical personnel, focusing on the dangers posed by venomous arthropods native to the United States. The book adequately details the symptoms and treatment of envenomizations as well as guidelines for identification and control, emphasizing the need for awareness and preparedness against these potential threats. The handbook categorizes various venomous arthropods into three groups based on their envenomization methods: biting/piercing, stinging, and urticating/vesicating. Each section provides critical information on specific species, including identification characteristics, distribution, biology, behavior, and techniques for avoidance and control. Additionally, it includes detailed descriptions of envenomization reactions and treatments for each arthropod, backed by scientific literature. By compiling this information, Biery’s work aims to equip medical practitioners with the knowledge necessary to respond effectively to situations involving venomous arthropods and ensure the safety of Air Force personnel and the general public.
