5 out of 5 stars my favorite pharm book   November 25, 2008
i used this book extensively for my pharm course. it is very thorough and probably sufficient for what a med student would need. goodman's is probably more comprehensive, but that is a massive text.if you combine this book with some good flashcards, you should be all set


3 out of 5 stars Good reference, not for teaching   September 27, 2008
I'm a medical student, currently taken pharmacology during my pre-clinical years and i don't recommend this textbook. Its voluminous, poorly written, and not logically organized. Its really only good as reference book and that's it. If you want to learn pharmacology buy a Lippincotts Illustrated review of pharmacology or Golans principle of pharmacology!


5 out of 5 stars Great book   September 15, 2008
Prompt delivery and book came in new, although the packaging was very messed up. Could possibly stuff the package to prevent damage. Satisfied with my order though - thanks.


5 out of 5 stars Still the Best Basic Text   April 3, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this comment useful.

Over the years I have purchased many editions of this classic text and have never been disappointed. Years ago I sat in Dr. Katzung's classes when he was a young man (and I was younger!) This book is invaluable because of its varied content--1. background physiology which is so important when one needs to review and keep up-to-date on new developments, 2. comparisons of chemical structures as new products come onto the market and 3. summary tables showing the different characteristics of the various drugs in any drug group and classification. This is the one clinical pharmacology text I wouldn't be without.


3 out of 5 stars A tough read   February 20, 2008
This is one of those books where you have to read a paragraph again and again to actually get what it's saying. It's got great topics, if you can sift through the words! I don't love the writing style.
