About this book

This book discusses the many factors impinging on daily practice and the place of pharmacy in the delivery of health care. It goes beyond simply practice and draws on a diverse range of disciplines, including sociology, social policy, psychology, anthropology, history and health economics, with each contributor bringing a unique perspective and insight into the practice. In this fully updated edition, the content and presentation have been thoroughly revised and new material added to reflect the many changes that have occurred, particularly in pharmacy and health policy and professional regulation and development.
