Description
"The strength of the book is that it is holistic in its approach. It covers the various types of systems used in electronic medicines management and also the basic technologies that support them. Significantly, it aims to explore the use of pharmacy IT in the context of professional practice, not as a technical discipline."
— Stephen Goundrey-Smith The Pharmaceutical Journal,2011
