Book description:

The fun, fast, and effective way for nursing majors to master pharmacology!

• Finally! A pharmacology primer written for nursing (and other allied health) majors rather than pharmacy students. You might be apprehensive learning pharmacology, especially if you have little, if any, experience with drugs. Pharmacology can by mystifying. However, it becomes demystified as you read this innovative text, because your knowledge of basic science is used as the foundation to learn pharmacology. All you need is a working knowledge of basic science – and Pharmacology Demystified – and you’re well on your way to mastering this challenging topic.

Pharmacology Demystified starts you off by fully explaining must-know concepts and practices in easily understood everyday language. Then, this unique guide leads you forward – at your own pace – to master the more complex aspects of pharmacology. Summations of key points, background information, quizzes at the end of each chapter, and a “final exam” reinforce learning every step of the way.

Mary Kamienski, PhD, APRN-C, FAEN, FAAN, CEN is the Family Nurse Practitioner/Emergency Care Specialty Director and professor at Rutgers School of Nursing.

Jim Keogh is a registered nurse and has authored more than a dozen books in the Demystified series.
