Editorial Reviews
Review
“The balance of text is more favoured towards the pharmacology aspects. However, the physiology chapters all cover their subject well. The content of the chapter is all of a high standard and would be suitable for those preparing for post-graduate examinations… The book also comes with a link to access to a searchable online version via Expertconsult.com which also includes linkage through Medline to the text of references used and access to a library of the images for each chapter… In summary, this a useful well-written textbook of pharmacology, but both sciences are dealth with to a high standard. The images are excellent and complement the text. I am happy to recommend this book as a useful learning and reference source.”
