This book is about the rational scientific basis and practice of drug therapy.Doctors need to understand the psychological and medical area in which they prescribe to deliver what patients have a right to expect i.e. maximum benefit with minimum risk. To this end the range of general topics discussed includes: benefits and risks, the public view of drugs and prescribers, complementary and traditional medicine in relation to conventional medicine, responsiblity for drug-caused injury, why drug therapy causes unavoidable risk, evaluation of medicines, ethics of medicines research, the scientific basis of pharmacology and adverse drug reactions, non-medical and social use of drugs. These general topics are followed by chapters systematically reviewing the rational use of drugs in disease. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 21 Jun 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Clinical Pharmacology (Paperback)
Now in its ninth edition, this ever popular textbook maintains its comprehensive approach to the discussion of drugs by organ system, with emphasis on the clinical conditions in which they are used, rather than on the pharmacological classification of numerous long-redundant drugs favoured by less 'medically orientated' competitors. With a clear text structure, this book will appeal to any medical student who wishes to gain a proper grounding in the subject of medical pharmacology. Throughout, clinically relevant topics such as pharmacokinetics and drug interactions are considered for each major drug group. An especially useful feature is the numerous footnotes referring to clinical trial data, so that the text is not disrupted, but an emphasis on evidence based prescribing is maintained. An extremely useful learning and revision tool, both at undergraduate and final MB level, and, no doubt, beyond...!

5.0 out of 5 stars Clinical Pharmacology - a medical student's perspective., 1 Sep 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Clinical Pharmacology (Paperback)
This is an excellent pharmacology text book covering all the major therapeutic topics in a pleasantly readable fashion. The book covers many areas, including drug development and the pharmacokinetic aspects of drugs that are relevant to everyday prescibing, benefiting from the input of a great number of practising doctors with their accompanying years of clinical experience. The book contains numerous amusing references, which certainly managed to stimulate my interest in what can easily become a rather dull and complicated subject. I would highly recommend this book to clinical medical students and indeed to anyone in the medical profession.
