Yes, this is a pretty good review book. It has drugs stuffed into tables, and even includes some good text in the chapters. Unfortunately, there just isn't enough info in the book for a pharm class or a USMLE review. Run and buy Lippincotts if you want the best pharm book on Earth. Ridiculously simple, has alot of great books but this really isn't one of them. It is ok but really isn't all that useful. GO BUY LIPPINCOTTS NOW....Believe me that will make your pharm experience simple as it can be.

This book has a decent amount of information, but it's a big disappointment after Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple, which is loved by all. It's as boring as the other pharm texts, except less comprehensive. If you are looking for a book similar to Micro Made Rid. Simple, only for pharmacology, probably the closest thing out there is Mediglyphics.

Really easy to understand literature, however it didnt go into detail as much as I would have liked it to. But overall, its not a bad book if you need to review.

I've been out of Medical School a long time. This pointed out what topics I needed to pursue in more detail in order to bring myself up to speed.

I used this book for review for my senior year pharmacology class as well as my Part II National Boards for Dentistry. It is amazingly wonderful! The book is filled with charts listing simliar drugs, side effects, modes of actions, etc. It doesn't get lost in the details that you don't really need to know for your tests, but gives you all the important things that a professor or a national board may ask.
A definite must have study tool for any pharmacology test!

This text encompasses the science of pharmacology and all that it involves with a quick, concise explanation of principles that anyone can understand, but advanced enough to touch on aspects that go beyond just the basics... A pleasure to read and one for daily use in the field. A really good purchase through and through!!

This book helped me prepare for a new nursing position. I now use it frequently for reference.

This new edition is filled with typos and mistakes. I wrote a letter to "Dr" Olson pointing out the errors that I found in his new edition. However, I have yet to hear from him. The previous edition is better. It has less typos.

Someone wrote that this book was wonderful for ANY pharmacology test. HAHAHAHAHA JOKE! Same way with Lippencotts... That is if you are taking REAL pharmacology. Don't waste your time with either of the books if you actually are expected to know something about Pharmacology.
