What a great book. Revisits the Physiology beautifully as an introduction to truly understanding the MOA of the drugs. Easy to understand and absolutely helpful.
Delivered in great shape and on time too (even though it took a couple days).

This book explains things in exactly the way I learn best, down to a molecular level. It explains where drugs bind on receptors and how they exert their clinical effects. Great review tool as I prepare for the NAPLEX.

Content is good as previous editions, definately not better. The quality of the book wont hold up as a reference manual., January 11, 2017

Not a great revision of the last few. But Ive stuck with these authors for the ease of reading and concise coverage. The book itself is very cheaply made, not like a reference book should be that is open and closed so much and moved around the office. Probably just go electronic next time.
