Remington: The Science and Practice of PharmacyFor more than 100 years, this textbook has been the definitive reference for all aspects of the science and practice of pharmacy, and is used for pharmaceutics, therapeutics and pharmacy practice courses in primary curricula. Since the first edition was published, pharmacists have used this book as a key one-stop reference. This updated edition covers many education and practice issues, from the history of pharmacy and ethics, to industrial pharmacy and pharmacy practice. New to the edition are expanded sections on pharmacy administration and patient care, which include new topics such as: nutrition in pharmacy practice; self care and home diagnostic products; health care delivery systems and interdisciplinary care; and home health patient care. Also, information has been condensed into one volume for greater portability and convenience. |
