Abstract: Abstract This chapter is a discussion of how some foreign substances get into the body, how they become distributed, what their effects are and how they are eliminated from the body. Lead is the exemplar in the biological discussion, but the biological concepts can be applied to many other substances. The mathematical discussion focuses on lead poisoning and on pharmaceuticals.
