  Many fundamental areas of pharmacology have advanced dramatically since the last edition, and this updated and revised edition reflects these changes. The sections on peptides, local hormones, and the cardiovascular system have been expanded, there are new descriptions of drug receptors and drugs affecting the nervous system. Each chapter includes a general account of drug action for each system, and gives notes on the major drugs. The emphasis on chemical structure has been retained.
