A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

While it is extremely desirable that every prospective pharmacist should have a course in Latin at least as extended as the ordinary high school course, still the fact remains that very many students enter schools of pharmacy with no training in Latin whatever. And after entrance unfortunately but little time can be devoted to language study. A certain modicum of Latin, however, is absolutely essential to the understanding of pharmaceutical terminology and to the proper handling of prescriptions. This book is designed to furnish that necessary modicum. The book is divided into two parts. The first consists of nineteen lessons presenting in progressive arrangement the necessary instruction in forms and syntax, and excluding everything which, however desirable and helpful, is not of immediate practical use to the pharmacist. To each lesson has been added for purposes of practice a vocabulary and a double set of exercises. A special series of lessons deals with the writing and reading of prescriptions. The second part is intended primarily for purposes of reference to be used both by the student in the school of pharmacy and by the druggist at the prescription counter. It contains word classifications, a complete list of abbreviations in common use, an analysis of the pharmaceutical terminology, and a comprehensive Latin-E nglish andE nglish-L atin dictionary.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
