great for the right audience

This book is great for the right audience, and for the right job. This book is not for the following people/jobs: 1. Medical students. If you are a medic, and you need a text for your pharmacology class, try the simpler and less detailed books like Katzung's. The level of detail in G & G may be overwhelming. 2. As an intern/resident, you really don't have the time for such details either. A pocket guide comes in handy for your day-to-day work. This book is excellent for research purposes, especially for presentation at a conference, for pharmacists and pharmacologists, and for others directly involved in drug dispensing or manufacture.

new edition coming soon!

The new edition of Goodman & Gilman's Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics is in the works, and should be ready by late August, 2001.

When comes a new edition?

The book is truly outstanding, but considering the pace medice and pharmacology moves on we need a new edition

A Change in the "Bible" of pharmacology

I am a country family practice physican and a UAMS clinical teacher. G & G has been THE basic pharmacology textbook since world war II. The ninth edition is the first that is not directly edited by the family team of Drs. Goodman, Gilman and Goodman Gilman. It is slightly different from previous editions and contains more illustrations with tables. Due to the constant changes in medicine, the new edition is a must! Keep your earlier edition and you will have the best of the old world of medicine and the new. Even after 15 years of practice, there is much to learn in this classic text. We will miss the Goodman-Gilman family but their tradition for excellence carries on.

Excellent information source, a bit tough reading at times

Goodman & Gilman remains THE pharmacology textbook The introduction to each section gives a welcome overview of, and feel for what is important. Detailed reading is necessary for the serious student - missing a single line can give a false impression of the intended meaning. Thorough explanations with detailed graphics provide deep understanding where the reader desires. Difficult at times but worth the effort.
