Reviews

.. .there is no comprehensive and practical text available on [dealing with emulsions and suspensions] ...which focus on surfactants and formulations, notwithstanding the great demand. {This} book...remed[ies] this situation.... ...the last part of Pharmaceutical Emulsions and Suspensions is devoted to experimental design. This methodology offers an excellent approach for the formulation of emulsions and suspensions. It reduces expenditure of time and money by limiting the number of manipulations while retaining a very high quality of information.... ...an ideal resource. - The Eastern Pharmacist, 2000 ...provides an excellent and comprehensive overview of the subject and would be a valuable addition to the pharmaceutics' library. It will be of particular value to researchers wishing for practical suggestions and guidance in the field. - American Journal of Pharmaceutical Education, 2000 ...a delightful and valuable compilation that is both timely and complete.... Can this book be recommended? Absolutely, with total confidence. The publishers provide a hardcover book printed on good-quality paper with clear illustrations. This volume is quite up to their usual standard. -Pharmaceutical Technology, 2001 significant and comprehensive chapters are highly readable and informative. -Pharmaceutical Development and Technology very timely. the content will be of value for years to come. I have no hesitation in recommending this volume to any newcomer to the field. -Food and Bioproducts Processing
