The pharmaceutical industry is extremely complex, and so are the inner workings of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies operating within it. Even the most seasoned industry professionals may find it difficult to understand the activities of, and interdependencies among, all key functions within a pharmaceutical company. Yet this knowledge is crucial when the responsibilities for--or repercussions of--key initiatives ripple across an organization.

Understanding Pharma is a must-read for anyone in the pharmaceutical industry--those new to the industry, industry veterans, and those working in or serving the industry.
  • Gain an understanding of the inner workings of each functional area in the typical pharmaceutical company
  • Learn the interdependencies of each functional area and how they affect the company's strategic goals
  • Understand how each functional area impacts the company's financial success.

    Absolute rubbish not worth spending money! Tells just general ideas and concepts, no detailed information. You can get more information from wiki. People publishing this type of books should be prosecuted, because that is a thief! Definitely not worth spending money.

    The content is comprehensive and balanced, a very good intro for people who are interested in the pharma business but without any background in it. I took one star off because of the high price.
