Overall this is a very good book for the introduction of lab and bench techniques for pharmacy. However, it is written in an outline format which can be dry to read straight, and the examples while well detailed can cause you to overcomplicate things like calculations. Provides a great reference though while prepping or working in my lab for basic pharmaceutics.By Thomas
