 Use as text book March 1, 2010
S. Adams (Charleston, SC USA)
I use this book instead of the recommended text book for my pharmacology class. It's very easy to read and understand with lots of helpful tables and charts. Also, it's a small book so I actually have time to read it. Several of my classmates also bought this book as their pharmacology text. Highly recommended for board prep as well.
 Slightly below average textbook January 28, 2010
Christopher White (Arcata, CA)
Overall, there are a lot of mistakes in this textbook that our professors specifically pointed out. It was annoying to find so many mistakes because it undercuts your confidence in the book itself. Further the chapters were not always organized the same and each drug could have been broken down more clearly and succinctly. There are some strengths though, it had nice pictures and side effects were labeled for many of the big drugs using helpful diagrams. I don't feel like this book worked for me because I need material that I can trust more than helpful diagrams, but everyone is different though. If the diagrams really help you sink it all in then by all means enjoy!
 Great book! December 4, 2009
