 Rating:  - GREAT book for self-study!I have not taken any pharmacy tech courses. I have had three months experience as a retail pharmacy tech, then we relocated to a different state that pretty much requires you have certification. For the past 2.5 months, I have been studying on my own and this book has been SO amazingly helpful. The author has written the book as though he were a friendly tutor with a sense of humor. It is definitely not a dry, boring math book. With every new concept, he starts you out with really easy ...

I recommend highly for anyone who has been through the AMEDD program at Ft. Sam Houston. Especially helpful for inpatient techs. SPC B. James Rating: - great reviewThis book was perfect for someone new in the phamacy technician role. It started at very basic information and worked its way up to pretty difficult problem. There were lots of examples. I passed the exam and knew how to work every math problem on the test. Great buy!! Rating: - Wonderful teaching toolI use this book as a teaching tool in my pharmacy technician classes. The students have commented that it is a great help in familiarizing them with the type of math encountered both in class and on the certification exams. Chapter 2 has helpful conversion charts and tables for the different measurement systems, enabling students to become familiar with them even before they start the class. The practice problems with answers are very helpful. Rating:  - Amazon =empty promisesI ordered this book through amazone and they said it would ship....in time for my class.....now I get an e-mail asking me to "approve" a shipping date which might get the book to me about three quarters of the way through the course. I AM FURIOUS.
