Pharm Calcs

The delivery took a couple days longer than expected but arrived well in time for me to use it. Book was in perfect condition as described.

Good overall review of pharmacy calculations

This is a recommended textbook where I work. I like the fact that it teaches concepts vastly differently from the required textbook that I teach out of....Thus, students who are unable to understand one way may be able to understand after using this text. I also like that students can write and practice problems directly in this book.

I like it

the book explains all the problems. THe answers are right after each set of porblems, not at the end. It is clear.
