Editorial Review:
The Tenth Edition also brings the field of pharmacology up-to-date in terms of critical areas such as molecular biology, new drugs, and clinical studies that have contributed to the understanding of therapeutics and their role in the management of disease. Time-tested, yet up-to-the-minute, "G & G" is truly the most current, expert, and easy-to-use drug reference available today.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Very complete
I am an ER PA and very rarely open this book. However, if I do need to look up a drug I know I have all the info I could ever want in this text. Most other text on drugs either to not cover subjects completely or omit some drugs all togather.
Rating:  - Just a good book..
This book is a good one, but has one little problem, the book doesn't have much coherence because there are too many people writting the book.

I prefer a book written by a few person because are much clear.

Given that the book probably took a couple of years to revise, the information is close to 10 years out of date! As is stated in the Notice on p. xviii, "Medicine is an ever-changing science." I have been waiting for ... Read More
Rating: - VERY CLOSE TO BEING PERFECT
"Goldman & Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics" is one brain toasting book. It reminds me of the "Principles of Pharmacology: Basic Concepts & Clinical Applications" (edited by Paul Munson). Of course, either of these two books can serve as a reference tool; and although the latter maintains a price advantage, 'Goldman & Gilman's' is more ubiquitous.
It is rich, versatile, and presents well laid-out voluminous chapters. Anyone who reads this book will appreciate how it ... Read More
