"Created on the premise that students must master the principles of drug therapy before learning the details of individual drugs, Karch's Focus on Nursing Pharmacology, 9th Edition, provides a concise, student-friendly approach to the concepts students need to know to pass their NCLEX(R) exams and establish a foundation for effective drug therapy in clinical practice. Author Rebecca Tucker builds on Amy M. Karch's popular, streamlined writing style, integrating students' knowledge of physiology, chemistry, and nursing fundamentals with a focus on essential information about each drug group. Extensively updated and full of engaging learning features, the 9th Edition keeps students at the forefront of nursing pharmacology while cultivating the critical thinking, clinical judgment, and patient communication skills students need to excel in their exams and on the job."--Publisher marketing
