The study of pharmacology requires memorization, association, and application of knowledge about hundreds of medications—a daunting task for even the most dedicated student. Mind Maps in Medical Pharmacology helps physician assistant, nurse practitioner, and medical students master the understanding of pharmacology through easy-to-understand, visual Mind Maps. These user-friendly, multi-sensory tools condense large amounts of information, helping you organize, integrate, and retain what you’ve learned in the vast and complex field of pharmacology.
