It covers the core information required by pharmacy students to understand the action of modern drugs on the human body.The third edition is larger than the previous edition and includes a new chapter on licensing of drugs and medicines which describes the make up and function of important committees such as the Commission of Human Medicines and the British Pharmacopoeia Commission. This includes material that is within the public domain and explains the process of getting a drug to market.The majority of the chapters include more worked examples/tutorial examples and the chapter on Analytical spectroscopy has been updated to include "qualitative" spectroscopic methods especially NMR, mass spectroscopy and some IR and the chapter on Stability of drugs and medicines has been updated to include a major section on "prodrugs" which are inactive compounds designed to decompose within the body to release the active moiety.

4.0 out of 5 stars
An Effective Introduction to Pharmaceutical Chemistry,
This review is from: Essentials of Pharmaceutical Chemistry (Paperback)
This is a very well written and organized introduction to pharmaceutical chemistry, and for a non-chemist is reasonably easy to follow, especially with definitions being complete and included when needed. Tutorial examples are very helpful. Overall, the content is instructional and practical. I can recomend this book especially to those not too familiar the subject matter.

5.0 out of 5 stars
lecturer from Australia,
By igor novak (Singapore, Singapore) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Essentials of Pharmaceutical Chemistry (Paperback)
I have read the book and will recommend it as the textbook for pharmacy students. It covers most relevant chemistry topics for pharmacists and does so in just the right amount of explanatory detail. The selection of topics is very good and the text does not assume that pharmacy undergraduates must learn all the topics which chemistry undergraduates do.
It is truly a well thought out applied chemistry text.
