From Introduction
The Script I hereby present to You was created
to present basic pharmacological knowledge to medical universities
students in an easy way. The Authors idea was to create a novel way to
present those issues, different from that used up to date in
pharmacology manuals.
Pharmacology is, without question, logical,
and most information are closely connected with one another, as any
action taken causes a certain reaction. That is why diagrams, arrows, "dialogue bubbles" and exclamation marks are used in so many chapters.
Some chapters are written in a more traditional way, either because the
subject is so simple there is no need to present it in form of graphics,
or so complicated that we can not logically explain the drugs mechanism
of action.
To adjust information presented in "Pharmacology in a
nutshell" to those taught on different university courses the student
is allowed — or even advised — to take notes inside the script!!! This
way, "Pharmacology in a nutshell" will match she students individual
needs.
