Review
"An excellent introduction... I found the book an excellent introduction to an area of healthcare law often overlooked by the legal profession. Pharmacy Law and Ethics clearly outlines the legal and ethical duties of the pharmacist within the British legal system... The book is well written and can be easily understood by both students and those with more than a passing interest in the field of pharmacy law.' Amazon.co.uk '...probably the best reference for practitioners in Great Britain. I would also strongly recommend it to those of us interested in some fresh ideas about comparative healthcare systems derived from the practice of pharmacy within the UK.' Journal of Pharmaceutical Technology 2002; 18 (May/June): 163"
