Pharmacology for the Physical Therapist, Second Edition - Paperback

by Erin E. Jobst (Author), Peter Panus (Author), Marieke Kruidering-Hall (Author)

An innovative new edition, completely reformatted to make it more valuable to students and faculty

Based on the classic Katzung's Basic and Clinical Pharmacology, this ground-breaking book illuminates the ever-expanding role of pharmacology in rehabilitation practice. In it you'll find unmatched insights on the full range of pharmacology topics, from drug receptor pharmacodynamics and general anesthetics, to cancer chemotherapy-all told from the vantage point of the authors' extensive first-hand experience. This new edition has been thoroughly revised with a fresh, new approach that includes improved pedagogy, better case discussion, and a complexity level more appropriate for a learning/teaching tool. PowerPoint slides, case discussions, test banks, and other resources will also be available to instructors.
