As a paramedic student taking an intro pharmacology course on the side, I found this text to be quite applicable. The overview of conditions prior to the explaination of current drug therapy provides a suffient reference for the reader to understand the basics of why certain pharmacological therapies are used. In addition, the CD animations provide a useful graphical description of specific drug mechanisms. I found this book to be a great overview and introduction to the subject.

not the best pharmacology book out there. not enough information but a good place to start.
definitely invest another one for your career

Condition was as described, but definitely not better than expected. Ordered for a summer class and new edition already out, so over-payed for this book. Can't sell back to vendor or school buy back programs. Might try to sell on e-bay... but lost money. Did make an A in the class though. Shipping not fast, but not slow either.

this is the first edition. It does have different with the 2nd ed. but the basic concept is the same. and it is muuuuuch cheaper than 2nd ed.

it was great..but i had to return it coz the instructor changed the book that we needed

Book was in good shape, however, did not come with the advertised CD ROM (which is required for my son's class); The seller failed to respond to my emails despite my multiple attempts to contact her. The book itself is good and my son is enjoying using it in his independent study. His teach also likes the book very much.
