Goodman & Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, Eleventh Edition (Goodman and Gilman"S the Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics)
"There are few technical books that remain in a leadership position for 65 years.The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics is one.  Physicians, teachers, and medical students have voted forGoodman & Gilmanwith their feet and with their pocketbooks for over six decades.  The question is not whether this is an important and useful text, butwhy?...WhileGoodman & Gilmanis no quick-read, it is surprisingly clearly written, logical and interesting.  It is also an awesome realization to see how much one never knew, added to what one knew but forgot."--The Permanente Journal(The Permanente Journal2006-08-01)
