Content
Written as a primary textbook for a first course in pharmacology, this text offers a truly integrated, systems-based approach to understanding drug therapy. Each chapter begins with a clinical case specific to a target organ system, and then incorporates the anatomy, cell biology, biochemistry, physiology, and pathophysiology of that system in the discussion of different drug classes that affect the system. This approach gives students a conceptual foundation for understanding how and why pharmacologic agents are effective for diseases specific to each organ system. Nearly 600 two-color illustrations show molecular, cellular, biochemical, physiologic, and pathophysiologic processes underlying diseases and depict targets of drug therapy. Each chapter includes summary tables of drugs by mechanism, class, side effects, interactions, and contraindications.

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages.
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages.
