The philosophy of this sixth edition is unchanged from earlier editions; the book comprehensively covers all aspects of pharmaceutics and is intentionally structured and written for newcomers to the formulation and manufacture of medicines, particularly pharmacy undergraduates. For the first three editions, Prof Mike Aulton (Emeritus Professor, De Montfort University and Fellow of the School of Pharmacy) was sole editor of this textbook, which is widely known as “ Aulton”. The language of the book has also changed and the explanations were further simplified so that we actually understand the concept even better! G. Taylor, BPharm PhD FRPharmS, Professor of Clinical Pharmaceutics, UCL School of Pharmacy, London, UK and Michael E.

Since the fourth edition, Kevin has worked with Mike as a co-editor, helping to extend the scope and content of the text.I bought this book for my class in Pharmaceutical Technology and, with a strong background in Physical Chemistry, I found this book very good for the transition from Physical Chemistry to Physical Pharmacy. An understanding of pharmaceutics is therefore vital for all pharmacists and those pharmaceutical scientists who are involved with converting a drug or a potential drug into a medicine that can be delivered safely, effectively and conveniently to the patient.
