"This is an excellent option for use in a course covering the scope of the discipline of pharmacology. It's easy on the eyes, easy to read and digest, and particularly strong in balancing detail and brevity. This balance clearly differentiates this book from others in the field that are either oppressive, unreadable tomes of undigestible detail or skeleton outlines that lack actual content." --Kenneth E. McCarson, PhD (University of Kansas Medical Center) Doody's Score: 93, 4 Stars!
