 Dipiro: Pharmacotherapy October 10, 2008
This is actually a great book for pharmacy students and pharmacists alike. It is much more understandable than Goodman and Gilman.
RJ September 30, 2008
The book I purchased was in perfect condition, it came within a three to four day time period, and was cheaper than if I had gotten it through my local bookstore.
Great place to shop for textbooks.
Convenience September 16, 2008
This is a required textbook for most Colleges of Pharmacy. The price is
equal to or less than bookstore WITH the added convenience of home delivery. It's a very heavy book, so this is a big plus. It comes with
a downloadable version and you can "carry" your lap top around with
text in it. Glad I ordered on Amazon.

I bought the casebook and the textbook together and found them to coincide nicely in their information. I even told my classmates about the deal. Thanks Amazon.

I was upset that I spent over $148.00 and found that the edges of the book were crumbled, could not send it back because I needed it for class
