Great resource

This is a great resource for learning how to make informed decisions about which drugs are right for your clients based on their individual medical history. If you are looking for a book that will teach you about drug dosing, this is NOT the book for you. It IS designed to teach mechanism of action, pharmacokenetics, adverse reactions, etc, of drugs based on their classification. The only drawback I found was that from chapter to chapter there were so many different authors, that there was an inconsistency in the writing and teaching styles. Some chapters were well written for my level of education (I am a nurse practitioner student), while others were talking well above my head. Most of us in NP school took our chemistry classes many years ago, so those authors who delve deep into the chemical level of drugs needed to clarify and simplify some of their teachings. Otherwise, this is a great teaching tool.
