"This book has a lot of quality information, and the chapter quizzes are excellent. This new edition is necessary because of the changes since the 2010 edition, including changes in pharmacy informatics and pharmacy billing and purchasing, the addition of new responsibilities for pharmacy technicians, and updates to USP standards."
