Cover images copyright 2006 by Obi-Tabot Tabe, PharmD. The images used on the cover and spine are taken from an 18'' 24'' oil painting by Obi-Tabot Tabe, PharmD, a painter, graphic designer, scientic illustrator, and pharmacist. Dr. Tabe, originally from Cameroon, is a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh, School of Pharmacy. The painting represents the use of loop diuretics in the treatment of edema and hypertension. A schematic drawing of the nephron and skeletal representations of molecular structures of two loop diuretics (furosemide and ethacrynic acid) are incorporated into the design. Two pharmacokinetic curves (IV bolus infusion and oral drug administration) associated with drug monitoring and drug regimen adjustments are also evident in this abstract design.

Development of these abilities requires an integration of knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values that can be acquired only through a structured learning process that includes classroom work, independent study, hands-on practice, and, ultimately, involvement with actual patients. Pharmacotherapy Principles & Practice is designed to meet the classroom and independent study needs of todays learners in the health professions. Chapters are written or reviewed by pharmacists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and physicians who are authorities in their elds and were sub- jected to rigorous review by experts. The book is written in a concise style that facilitates an in-depth level of understanding of the essential concepts. The disease states covered and the drugs discussed in the text focus on those disorders most often seen in actual practice. Each chapter reviews etiology, epidemiology, pathophysio- logy, and disease presentation, followed by clear therapeutic recommendations for drug selection, dosing, and patient monitoring. The learning features used in Pharmacotherapy Principles & Practice were designed in collaboration with edu- cational design specialists to enhance learning and retention. These features include: Structured learning objectives. These are listed at the begin- ning of each chapter, and information in the text that corre- sponds to each learning objective is identied by a vertical rule in the margin, which allows the reader to nd content related to each objective quickly. Key concepts related to patient assessment and treatment. Designed to help focus learning, these key concepts are listed at the beginning of each chapter. Textual material that develops these concepts is easily identied by numbered icons through- out the chapter. Patient encounter vignettes. Distributed throughout each chap- ter, these case scenarios facilitate critical thinking skills and lend clinical relevance to the scientic foundation provided. Patient care and monitoring guidelines. This section, placed near the end of each chapter, is designed to assist students in their general approach to assessing, treating, and monitoring patients for therapeutic response and adverse events. Up-to-date literature citations. A comprehensive reference list for each chapter is provided on the Online Learning Center to substantiate treatment recommendations. Key references and readings. Placed at the end of each chapter, this list provides a mechanism to acquire a deeper understanding of the subject matter. Generous use of tables, gures, text boxes, and algorithms. These visual features enhance understanding of pathophysio- logy, clinical presentation, drug selection, pharmacokinetics, and patient monitoring. Medical abbreviations and their meanings. Placed at the end of each chapter, these lists facilitate learning the accepted shorthand used in real-world medical practice. Glossary of medical terms. The glossary is one of the appen- dices at the end of the book; the rst use of each glossary term in a chapter appears in bold font. Self-assessment questions and answers for each chapter. Located in the Online Learning Center, these questions are designed to evaluate student learning and may be used to obtain approximately 170 hours of continuing education credit for licensed pharmacists, nurse practitioners, physi- cians, and physician assistants. Laboratory values expressed as both conventional units and System International (SI) units. Including both units of meas- urement facilitates use of this book throughout the world. Appendices useful to students and practitioners. These appendices include: 1) conversion factors and anthropomet- rics; 2) common laboratory tests and their reference ranges; and 3) common medical abbreviations. An electronic version of Pharmacotherapy Principles & Practice can be downloaded to a desktop or laptop computer using the access number that appears on the card inserted in the middle of this book. The Online Learning Center [McGraw-Hill: Please provide URL] provides the complete reference lists, self-assessment questions, a testing center that has the ability to grade and provide immediate feedback on the self-assessment questions as well as reporting capabilities, and other features designed to support learning. Pharmacotherapy Principles & Practice is a valuable and unique learning tool that combines state-of-the-art, compre- hensive, yet concise chapters, unique learning features, and the Online Learning Center. xxix Chisholm_FM.qxd 1/30/07 7:20 PM Page xxix We would like to acknowledge the commitment and dedi- cation of the 157 contributing authors and 142 reviewers of the chapters contained in this text.

We also extend our thanks to the McGraw-Hill Medical Publishing Division, especially Michael Brown, Maya Barahona, and Robert Pancotti, for their dedication to this project. Finally, we thank our families for their patience and support of this work and of our goal to improve patient care by enhancing learning of pharma- cotherapeutics across the health professions.
