0.0

Martin's Physical Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences is considered the most comprehensive text available on the application of the physical, chemical and biological principles in the pharmaceutical sciences. It helps students, teachers, researchers, and industrial pharmaceutical scientists use elements of biology, physics, and chemistry in their work and study. Since the first edition was published in 1960, the text has been and continues to be a required text for the core courses of Pharmaceutics, Drug Delivery, and Physical Pharmacy. The Sixth Edition features expanded content on drug delivery, solid oral dosage forms, pharmaceutical polymers and pharmaceutical biotechnology, and updated sections to cover advances in nanotechnology. Key Features NEW! Chapters are reorganized, improving the organization and flow of the text. NEW! Two new chapters offer the latest information on pharmaceutical biotechnology and solid oral dosage forms. NEW! Completely rewritten chapters present current concepts in drug delivery and targeting, pharmaceutical polymers, and interpretive skills needed for pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists. NEW! Highlight color added to reinforce key concepts in artwork and heighten book's visual appeal. Illustrative examples show how crucial physical chemistry principles are applied in pharmacy practice. Key Concept boxes emphasize important material. Chapter Objectives introduce information to be learned in the chapter. Chapter Summaries reinforce chapter content.
