Editorial Review:The current science of pharmacology-and its clinical applications-at your fingertips
Now in its 25th year of publication, Basic and Clinical Pharmacology is the most up-to-date and complete pharmacology textbook available. Through nine previous editions it has set the standard for concise and easy-to-read, yet comprehensive coverage of pharmacology. The text's integration of basic with clinical science makes it well suited for an integrated organ-system-based curricula as well as the more traditional curricula.

Rating:  - A tough read

Rating: - Basic & Clinical Pharmacology
While most of my students would not find this excellent work "basic", it is an outstanding adjunct to any healthcare professional's library. The chapters are well structured and the information is up to date. The illustrations have improved over the years and are mated well with the text.

Rating: - Basic & Clinical Pharmacology

Rating: - BEST STUDENT Pharmacology BOOK
