<br/><br/> The evolving fusion of knowledge and responsibility designed to provide safe, effective drugs and health supplies comprises a significant component of one of man’s most basic concerns and thus also of his history. An account of this development merits the attention of the general reader, but more particularly this book is intended to give the pharmacy student some additional perspective to guide his reshaping of traditions and improving of the services and the satisfactions which he expects in the profession.
