Review

"Rang & Dale are now due more praise for their new improved version of Pharmacology. As before the writing is excellent and surely undergraduates can master a subject when it is explained so lucidly and with evident enthusiasm. As a comprehensive textbook for pharmacy or pharmacology students it has few rivals. As a guide to help continuing education in modern pharmacology it should be both useful and enjoyable."
