Concise Clinical Pharmacology by Ben Greenstein
This is a concise study guide and thorough introduction to clinical pharmacology from which students can gain a rapid understanding of individual topics within the discipline, and from which they can review and revise certain topics before exams. This is achieved through self-contained two-page "spreads" for each topic, with concise text on the left and a diagram on the right to elaborate and reinforce the text. To further underpin the text, additional two page spreads have been included where appropriate, with case histories on the left and Q&As on the right. The text has a strong clinical focus and, in the main, sections relate to particular body systems or the therapy of a disease-class (eg, cancer). Pharmacological principles and mechanisms are covered, but the main focus is on the therapeutic use of the drugs. Sections cover basic principles of pharmacology, specialised pharmacology (inc. in pregnancy, paediatrics, geriatrics), and the vitamins. The text has been written primarily for pharmacy students, but will also be of interest to clinical medical students. The strong clinical focus should also appeal to practitioners.'..an excellent and thorough primer in clinical pharmacology...concise yet managing to convey an authoritative sweep over the entire subject. Not only will this book be a valuable aide memoire to the pharmacy or medical undergraduate but also will be suitable as a quick reference guide to practitioners in both fields.'
Laura Sham amd John F. Cryan, The Irish Pharmacy Journal, 2007, 85 (4), 172
'This book provides the reader with convenient 2 page summaries of topics. The text is easy to follow, and the diagrams, figures, and tables assist in expanding on information contained in the text. A good overview of pharmacology topics and presented in a user-friendly format.'
Mark L Glover, The Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2007, 41 (5), 905
