Customer Reviews

Great illustrations, very accessible

I teach allied health pharmacology and struggle to find a textbook that isn't too long for a one quarter class, that isn't too full of medical terminology that is incomprehensible to a student without a medical school education, and yet that has beautiful illustrations and diagrams of where and how drugs act in the body. This book succeeds where others fail. I use it to supplement my lectures. I love the illustrations, the text that cuts to the essentials, and the short length (my students might actually read it!) Although it was written to accompany the textbook, IMHO it stands alone for a one quarter or one semester pharmacology text that anyone can read, covering just the basic essentials.

Excelent

Good for who want to learn pharmacology simple and fast. Small book with everything that is essencial.
