Physicochemical Principles of Pharmacy

This is principally a textbook for undergraduate pharmacy students taking them from basic physical chemistry to the design and use of pharmaceutical drug forms. The text gives the physicochemical background to the action of drugs from the site of dosage to the site of action. It is therefore of interest to pharmacologists, researchers in pharmacokinetics, pharmacists and pharmaceutical physicians. The first edition was published in 1981. This is an updating and revision of the earlier work.
