Rezension

"This is a great reference to have on hand for dental practitioners and for those who will be providing oral healthcare to a diverse patient population. The authors have effectively organized the book into a guide that is simple to follow while making pharmacology and prescribing medications across the formulary an easy exercise. I have used a number of clinical pharmacology books for dental practice, and this ranks highly as one that is up-to-date and very user-friendly." ( Doody's , 8 November 2013)
