Review
., ."a unique and valuable support for all those involved or interested in drug therapy.
This is a textbook that no university or pharmacy department, particularly those with employess studying at any level, and no pharmacist trying to develop their knowledge base should be without." "Dr Chris Green and John Sexton", The Pharmaceutical Journal, July 2003
any pharmacy or medical student, this text is incredible. It's got a wealth of material, is easy to use and understand (without being simplistic), and does an excellent job of integrating the principles of clinical pharmacy and pharmacology. This is one textbook I would strongly recommend for pharmacy undergrads, medical students and anyone looking for a book to provide a solid foundation to their study of applied clinical pharmacology." "2nd Year Pharmacy Student", Robert Gordon University, Aberdeen, April 2004

An essential text book for final year Pharmacy students!
This book will be useful to all final year Pharmacy students, it has detailed chapters on all of the areas covered in the Clinical Modules. With topics ranging from chronic renal failure to ischaemic heart disease.

The chapters intoduce the topic, they discuss symptoms, causes, epidemiology and drug treatment available. At the end of each chapter there are some well written case studies,with questions and answers to illustrate the topic of the chapter. These put the learning into practice and are very good reading for exam revision.

The book is overall very readable and contains many illustrations, tables and graphs which aid your learning. It will also be a useful tool for the Pre-Reg year, especially for those entering Hospital Pharmacy.
