For this reason, I am making the move to get more and more textbooks and reference texts for my Kindle.A text like this is so nice to have searchable. Finally, the digital price for this text is so much less than for the print version, it is just too good to pass up. Katzung's pharmaology is a perfect book for the Kindle. I find myself using the search feature often to zoom right in to the area that I need to read. Thank you, Lange, for publishing in Kindle; please keep it up. The diagrams come across perfectly on the greyscale screen (even on my 1st generation Kindle), and it is easily navigable from the table of contents.Since Katzung is designed to be a quick reference text instead of a full, in-depth treatment of all of the pharmacology surrounding the drugs covered, I am especially grateful for the digital edition. With the Kindle reader for iPod Touch/iPhone, the PC reader, and the soon-to-be-released blackberry reader, I can have my text with me wherever I am for quick reference.
One note, is that this is available on-line now through many schools, so before you purchase this, be sure that you don't have access to a free copy. The text is easy to read and understand. This is an excellent book to use in medical school pharmacology courses. It then continues to be a great resource afterward.
It's a great book for introduction of pharmacology and its clinical aspect. This book arrived within 7 days.
(carminepl@yahoo.com) I have owned every edition of this book (in English or Spanish) since my days of student to now, when I teach Pharmacology and I think it always has been terrific. I do wonder anyway: Is the spanish version ready.
The only complaint I have is that information different pieces of information may be found in different chapters related to pathophysiology, so to study a single drug may involve review in multiple chapters. It is a good basic review of disease processes and related medications. I bought this book to study for a CRNA interview. I got in, so I give props to this book.
