Trade Review'This well structured and readable book should be seen as a core text for those undergraduate, pre-registration trainees and recently qualified pharmacists who wish to progress down the business path.'

'...the book has successfully managed to bring a lot of order into chaos and the compilation has successfully managed to bridge gaps in knowledge in a comprehensive, straightforward format. It is worth reading because we all know it is not the crook in modern business that we fear the most but the honest man who doesn't know what he is doing.' Sid Dajani, Member of the Council (RPSGB) and the Pharmaceutical Services Negotiating Committee. Secretary of Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham local pharmaceutical committee, 1 March 2005.
