This is a simple book, that is very easy to follow and read and not really technical. The math is elementary. It is not terribly specific, and you will not have pharmacist knowledge or can pass a Pharmacy Technician cert. exam, but you will get a very brief overview of what pharmaceuticals you will be using as a Surg. Tech.

I didnt purchase this book through , however I did purchase it through school. I am a Surg. Tech student and everyone is my class hates this book. It doesn't explain anything, such as key terms and its non-descriptive. Its like you should already know what you are reading instead of it teaching you.If its not for class get something else. The only reason I had gotten this was because it was the book needed, but they will be changing them for next year.

Great book to have for personal or school uses. Informative and to the point. Instead of looking info in several books, I found all what I was looking for in one place.Thank you

I receive my book on time the book looks brand new they kept me updated with my shipment order very satisfied I'll smile :-)
