Review:

"Naturally I rate Remington very highly and I routinely bring the hard copy to lectures to recommend this book as a global text and I bring it to labs to allow it to be used along side BPC, BP and the USP to search for drug and excipient monographs. Students sit with copies of the text before practicals searching for information. It is evident that my students see Remington as a trusted source because they will quote Remington in meetings for case studies, labs and in lectures...My overall impression of 22 is very positive, I feel the editor and authors have updated the text in line with developments in pharmaceutics with important sections on the biopharmaceutics classification system and modern drug discovery sections. Based on my reading of the text over the last month i've noticed that the authors have given us some details of what direction research might be leading towards and so this text might also be recommended to research scientists...When students ask me I recommend Remington above all other books" Dr Sam Maher, Lecturer in Pharmaceutics, RCSI. 9 November 2012. "The 22nd edition of one of the most respected and comprehensive references in the field of pharmacy for the past 100 years manages to balance the traditional aspects of pharmacy with the expanding needs of current clinical pharmacists...This edition has undergone significant changes to maintain relevancy, adding new chapters organising drug monographs for better accessibility...this is a key reference for pharmacy students, researchers, pharmacists, and clinicians...Chapters on topics such as the drug approval process and pharmaceutical calculations are useful for students just learning as well as pharmacists looking to review these areas...This edition succeeds at providing information for a variety of readers, including students, researchers, and clinicians alike. Score - 5 stars." Melissa M. Ranieri, BS, PharmD, Doody's Notes, November 2012. "As a student, the science of pharmacy volume is invaluable as a quick reference source, as well as a useful basis for an essay, lab report or other university work...The practice section is also very relevant for students, as well as the wider pharmacy world, as a good reference source for anything from pharmacists and public health, to professional communications or patient care...as it covers so many topics, and comes with free online access, I think it's good value for money." Charlotte Goodwin, British Pharmaceutical Students Association, October 2012.
