First Lines in Dispensing

Written primarily for students, nurses and other interested parties as an introduction to the art of compounding medicines. For the Second Edition "particular attention has been given to the article on Weights and Measures; remarks on General Pharmacy have been extended; the chapter on Percentage Solutions has been re-written, and amplified. A chapter on Ampoules and a special table of Solubilities have been introduced." Hardback in brown cloth, pp182, illustrated. Good condition (shelf-worn, with occasional annotation in pencil, and both the preliminaries and the endpapers also bear substantial notes in pencil; several page corners have been turned, no doubt for ease of reference; gift dedication, Dec 1920, to flyleaf).
