摘要:The editing of this new publication is a departure from the usual method of presenting the principles of American Pharmacy. The author selected educators from eighteen American colleges to collaborate with him in a comprehensive survey of modern techniques. While the bibliography at the end of each chapter is not a new thought, yet it affords the student an excellent opportunity for collateral reading. The illustrations and subject material are well selected, with the exceptions of the illustrations of complex machinery which the student may never see or use, e.g., Fig. 166 and 174, will only add to his mental confusion. The brief chapter on History of Pharmacy might easily have been extended for the benefit of the student. In a few instances, e.g., the subject material on Endocrinology and Biologicals might better have been given in their respective texts. The book should receive a wide acceptance.
