I have been teaching psychopharmacology for a long time and this is my favorite text to recommend to both baccalaureate nursing students and advanced practice nurse practitioners. Dr. Lichtblau has an easy reading style and provides clear and interesting explanations of complex concepts. My students are willing to read this material because the author engages the reader. He does not dummy down the information but makes it available in small portions to prevent indigestion! I highly recommend this book.By Barbara J. Limandri
This is a very well written, easy to understand book about a topic that is usually way too technical for even the most well schooled pharmacology student to absorb.By Susan Spray
I found the order in which the information is presented helps in its understanding, and its building concepts upon concepts providing for deeper understandings of the material. I am given a sense of interconnectedness to the ideas presented.
A great resource, a keeper on the book shelf.
