Updated with new chapters and topics, this book provides a comprehensive
description of all essential topics in contemporary pharmacokinetics and
pharmacodynamics. It also features interactive computer simulations for
students to experiment and observe PK/PD models in action.
- Presents the essentials of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in a
clear and progressive manner
- Helps students better appreciate important concepts and gain a greater
understanding of the mechanism of action of drugs by reinforcing
practical applications in both the book and the computer modules
- Features interactive computer simulations, available online through a
companion website at: https:

- Adds new chapters on physiologically based pharmacokinetic models,
predicting drug-drug interactions, and pharmacogenetics while also
strengthening original chapters to better prepare students for more
advanced applications
- Reviews of the 1st edition: "This is an ideal textbook for those
starting out ... and also for use as a reference book ...."
(International Society for the Study of Xenobiotics) and "I could
recommend Rosenbaum's book for pharmacology students because it is
written from a perspective of drug action . . . Overall, this is a
well-written introduction to PK/PD .... " (British Toxicology Society
