Description
Pharmaceutical Ethics is an important text, which aims to provide the ethical guidelines much needed by the pharmaceutical industry.

* Covers ethical issues involved in the testing and use of pharmaceuticals on human beings
* Investigates issues such as whether choice of drug should lie with the physician or the patient
* Looks at a wide variety of subjects connected with pharmaceutical ethics.
* Focuses specifically on the issues surrounding the pharmaceutical industry, not medicine in general.
* Fulfils an important need in the Pharmaceutical Industry.
