REVIEW OF THE PROPOSAL:<br />

“..I do agree with the authors that the integration of science and practice is poorly managed in the UK.<br />

Any publication which manages to bridge the gap would be worthwhile. I think this proposal could be<br />

a runner. There is a need for a text which tries to bridge the science/practice gap in pharmacy<br />

education and the authors seem qualified to produce it..”<br />

Overall<br />

This is a<br />

much<br />

smaller text<br />

with simpler<br />

cases<br />

This text is<br />

suited to<br />

advanced<br />

students<br />

and<br />

practising<br />

pharmacists.<br />

It is<br />

designed<br />

primarily for<br />

use in the<br />

USA .Many<br />

of case<br />

studies are<br />

not<br />

transferable<br />

to UK health<br />

care<br />

systems<br />

Standard<br />

textbook<br />

which uses<br />

cases as<br />

part of<br />

information<br />

It does not<br />

have a<br />

case-based<br />

approach so<br />

the two texts<br />

should<br />

complement<br />

each other.<br />
