Pharmacology Book:
I bought this book to study for a CRNA interview. I got in, so I give props to this book. It is a good basic review of disease processes and related medications. The only complaint I have is that information different pieces of information may be found in different chapters related to pathophysiology, so to study a single drug may involve review in multiple chapters.
my favorite pharm book:
i used this book extensively for my pharm course. it is very thorough and probably sufficient for what a med student would need. goodman's is probably more comprehensive, but that is a massive text.if you combine this book with some good flashcards, you should be all set
Good reference, not for teaching:
I'm a medical student, currently taken pharmacology during my pre-clinical years and i don't recommend this textbook. Its voluminous, poorly written, and not logically organized. Its really only good as reference book and that's it. If you want to learn pharmacology buy a Lippincotts Illustrated review of pharmacology or Golans principle of pharmacology!
Great book:
Prompt delivery and book came in new, although the packaging was very messed up. Could possibly stuff the package to prevent damage. Satisfied with my order though - thanks.
