Pre-eminent authorities examine everything you need to know about pharmacology AND therapeutics for all of today's drugs - from the underlying science through innovation, translation, regulation, and clinical implementation. Evidence-based therapeutic guidelines facilitate decision making; and coverage of pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics, regenerative pharmacology, stem cell therapies, and the emerging field of individualized medicine keeps you at the forefront of the latest developments. Reference is easy, thanks to the book's logical, user-friendly format, as well as access to the complete contents online. In print and on the web, you'll have the answers to every vital question at your fingertips!
Reviews
-"This is an outstanding textbook that connects the recent advances in basic principles with the practice of medicine. It is a must-have book for those involved in drug discovery, translational research, and the teaching of evidence-based medicine."
Thomas L. Pazdernik, PhD (University of Kansas Medical Center)
