The previous edition is the text for our G&D class. Therefore, in the interest of fairness maybe there have been some significant revisions. This book makes reading a drug package insert seem like a guilty pleasure. The numerical nature of large portions of the information lends its self-more to charts and graphs than prose. There are numerous discrepancies between the chapters and the review questions. The ranges put forth as normal are often inconsistent with accepted standards. If this book is on your list good luck....
