This book was released on 2021-02-07 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pharmacology doesn't have to be hard! Here's why: At Medical Creations, we are firm believers of the notion that the best way to learn a new topic is first to understand the fundamentals. Once you know the fundamentals, you will be able to understand the bigger picture. If you don't understand the bigger picture, forcing yourself to memorize any details becomes that much harder. Our Pharmacology book is meant to give you a good understanding of the topic before you can dive into the details with other, more extensive pharmacology books. The goal is to have you understand rather than memorize. It's a great alternative to the thicker and more expensive pharmacology books if you are studying for an exam and you just want a quick recap, or if you are just starting out and you want an overview. The purpose of this pharmacology book is to serve as a reference manual and a comprehensive study guide for medical, nursing, and paramedic students. For easy understanding of this complex subject, the book has been divided into multiple units based on each body system. The addition of multiple-choice questions will make it easier for you to remember the information from previous chapters. The key therapeutic drug classes for each major system have been outlined in separate chapters. Bullet points and tables make the content easy to understand. Pharmacology is a constantly evolving field, and new drugs are being developed every day. The main aim of this book is to familiarize the reader with the different categories of drugs. The most commonly prescribed drugs are described here, but the book is by no means exhaustive and does not cover all the drugs available today. For detailed descriptions of the latest drugs on the market, and less commonly prescribed drugs, the reader is referred to one of the more exhaustive textbooks of pharmacology. This book will help you: * ..Have a clear understanding of pharmacology * ..Learn about different groups of drugs, the pharmacokinetics, and the pharmacodynamics * ..Find pharmacology much more bearable Go to the top-right of the page and click "Add to Cart"

  • Author : Rae Armantrout
  • Publisher : Wesleyan University Press
  • Release : 2010-08-01
  • ISBN : 0819571105
  • Pages : 143 pages

Download or read book Versed written by Rae Armantrout and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2010-08-01 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry (2010) Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award (2009) Rae Armantrout has always organized her collections of poetry as though they were works in themselves. Versed brings two of these sequences together, offering readers an expanded view of the arc of her writing. The poems in the first section, Versed, play with vice and versa, the perversity of human consciousness. They flirt with error and delusion, skating on a thin ice that inevitably cracks: "Metaphor forms / a crust / beneath which / the crevasse of each experience." Dark Matter, the second section, alludes to more than the unseen substance thought to make up the majority of mass in the universe. The invisible and unknowable are confronted directly as Armantrout's experience with cancer marks these poems with a new austerity, shot through with her signature wit and stark unsentimental thinking. Together, the poems of Versed part us from our assumptions about reality, revealing the gaps and fissures in our emotional and linguistic constructs, showing us ourselves where we are most exposed.
