This review is from: Communication Skills in Pharmacy Practice: A Practical Guide for Students and Practitioners (Paperback)

Very much like the more recent edition. My professor was adamant that students use the fifth edition, but I found that the two were nearly identical. This book provides great examples for each topic, and I also found it to be an easy read.
