PRACTICAL PHARMACY

for Pharmacists and Physicians

by

Birdsey L. Maltbie

... something about this book, from this book... 😊😊

This work is not intended to replace the larger and more complete works but to afford the student a course of study by which he may master the subject in an elementary way and prepare himself for a better understanding of the higher branches as taught by Remington, Caspari and Arny.

The author trusts that drug clerks who wish to prepare themselves for examination by boards of pharmacy will find in this book what they require in a form that is readily understood, yet no student in pharmacy should feel that though he has mastered this work his knowledge of pharmacy is suffcient, The successful pharmacist is always a student and supplies himself with the best works obtainable and consults them frequently.

Perhaps for the physician this work will be of greatest service. It is a well known fact that medical students are, as a rule, deficient in pharmacy, and that many physicians in active practice are unfamiliar with the Pharmacopoeia and the simplest pharmaceutical

processes, It is believed that physicians and medical students in particular will find in this book all of the necessary knowledge of pharmacy in a form that will be readily understood without explanation by a teacher. If the publication of this book will be the means of a better understanding of pharmacy by physicians the author will be amply repaid for his work.
