Principles of Clinical Pharmacology by Arthur J Atkinson Jr
The rate of introduction of new pharmaceutical products has increased rapidly over the past decade, and details learned about a particular drug become obsolete as it is replaced by newer agents. Principles of Clinical Pharmacology focuses on the fundamentals that underlie the clinical use and contemporary development of pharmaceuticals. The coverage of these principles in this book will be of particular benefit to individuals engaged either in the teaching or study of sound therapeutic technique or in the investigation of pharmacological agents.
"..this book fulfills the long-felt need for an updated publication in Clinical Pharmacology." --INDIAN JOURNAL OF PHARMACOLOGY (2003)"...this book is for the reader who wants a detailed in- depth understanding of clinical pharmacology." --E STREAMS (2003)
