Summary: Overview of pk modeling
Comment: I agree with the previous reviewer that this book is over-priced, especially when compared to the scant content. It's listed as 139 pages, but, considering the small 6x9 format, the book contains less than 100 pages of material.

The material that is contained within the book is well-presented, and the chapters are logically sequenced, each building on the other. The illustrations and tables are relevent and supplement the text nicely. However, each chapter is but a short, cursory review, there is not enough detail. What Bourne presents here is more like an outline of what he could have written.

This book might be helpful to pharmaceutical scientists who use ADAPT, BOOMER, MULTI, NONMEM, or other programs for modeling pharmacokinetic data. However, there is little here for practicing pk clinicians.

Summary: A book that should have never been published.
Comment: For the price, this book is trash. Learning PK parameters with this book is nearly impossible. I have been working in the pharmacy field as a hospital clinician for 18 years and I couldn't understand a thing from this book. Save your money and buy a well-known book. Michael Winter's book is a better deal. This (Borne) author seems to like $50-words that never say anything. This leads to a misunderstanding of terms. My advice to him: Stop taking everything rightly learned in nonsensical garbage.
