This book really helped me learn the different kinds of terminology for my pharmacology class. One would never know all this without reading this book. I'm thankful I had it at the time. It made test taking easier. I would recommend this to all future surgical technologist.

The lady who wrote this book was my teacher 15 years ago. She was by far the best teacher I had ever had my entire life. I learned so much from her. In comparison to the students who just get out these days. Kathy, if you are reading this....thank you

If your cirrculum does not let you keep this book, i highly suggest you make this purchase. Very easy to read, very straight to the point. Simple, easy to understand information on pharmocology. I ended up using this book for all my homework and basically ignored my normal text book during the pharmocology block.

This study guide is great and follows the Pharmacology for the Surgical Technologist very well. I was very happy in the condition I received it and I love that it gives additional information to the book.

I like the layout of the book. It should be helpful to me as I embark on this field of study and to perform with excellence as a surgical technologist. The cost of the book is quite steep, however.

Perfect condition. Great price: well written book. Wish it had more bold print for the terms you need to know but I have a highlighter so it works

cheaper than my school!!! and exactly what I needed for my surg tech program. I get most of my books here.

Great for the course now for sale as i passed the class and no longer need the text thanks everyone.
