Clinical Chemistry, Chemistry, Pharmacy, Clinical 

Established since 1949 as the text of choice for pharmacy students, Wilson and Gisvold's Textbook is now in its revised, updated Tenth Edition. Reflecting the breakthroughs that have led to contemporary pharmacotherapeutics, the Tenth Edition includes new chapters on drug latentiation and prodrugs; immunizing biologicals; diagnostic imaging agents; and biotechnology. All chapters from the previous edition have been revised to incorporate material on new drugs and advances in understanding how drugs act on biological systems. Coverage begins with the fundamental principles of chemistry, biochemistry, and biology that underlie the discipline of medicinal chemistry. These principles are then applied to understanding the properties, mode of action, therapeutic applications, and limitations of various pharmaceutical agents. The subject matter is organized by pharmaceutical and therapeutic classes, providing a bridge between the basic sciences and clinical practice. The text contains many tables for quick reference to names, formulations, dosages, and applications - from Amzon
