 A fine, user-friendly and interesting guide to pharmacology January 28, 2002
19 out of 19 found this review helpful
Having tried numerous other texts on pharmacology, I was taken aback by the ease of reading yet thorough approach nature of this text. The book includes a good amount of pathophysiology before discussion of the pharmacology. This means that one can understand the pharmacokinetics and dynamics so much more readily. The illustrations are optimal, the prose and sentence structure is clearly designed so that the reader can learn straightforwardly rather than translating needless jargon and poor prose. The System approach is excellent too. I would have liked a hardcover though. If you are serious about learning pharmacology, this book will travel with you everywhere and ergo receive a significant amount of wear and tear. Nevermind, they are working on the next edition as I type.
Excellent, but perhaps too detailed in places September 1, 2000

As a pharmacology student I would highly recommend this book. In places it is perhaps too detailed, but as long as you can judge what you need it is an excellent book. Very informative and arranged well into topics. To maximise benefit from it I would recommend also buying a basic textbook to get a general idea of the topic before going into the depth this book does (perhaps Basic Pharmacology at a Glance, M.Neal).
A must-have for medics... September 23, 2004

This textbook covers everything anyone could ever need - it goes into plenty of detail, explains things clearly and simply, and has a separate section for drugs used in neuroscience. I found it fantastic for both first and second year medicine, and couldn't have done without it for timed essays and tutorials. A sound investment which i will definitely be using during the third year.
A must for pharmacy students! March 30, 2001

This is quite possibly the only book I needed as a pharmacy student, where pharmacology and physiology were concerned. It is just perfect in detail, graphics and simplicity. No need for a lecturer!
Very useful text September 20, 2004

As a final year biomedic, I've been using Rang since my first year. It's an excellent text, and worth having around even if it's not one of your 'essential reading' items, as it has tons of useful info on different drugs and their mechanisms of action. I've found myself in the middle of a physiology course before now thinking to myself "Yikes, I've never heard of this! Better check in Rang", and I know people on very diverse courses (pharmacology [obviously], physiology, medical microbiology, medicine - and others) that do the same.
The writing is very clear and easy to follow. Each drug (or family of drugs) is divided into sections such as Pharmacokinetics, clinical use, method of action, etc., and compared to other compounds with similar properties, with lots of tables and diagrams along the way to make things that little bit clearer. The price is comparable to everything else on the market, but this is definitely an excellent investment. You'll use it throughout your degree and (my tutor has a copy nestled on his bookshelf) probably beyond.
