Goodman and Gilman’s The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics 13th Edition Pdf Book Description:

The first edition of this book appeared in 1941, the product of a collaboration between two friends and professors at Yale, Louis Goodman and Alfred Gilman. Their purpose, stated in the preface to that edition, was to correlate pharmacology with related medical sciences, to reinterpret the actions and uses of drugs in light of advances in medicine and the basic biomedical sciences, to emphasize the applications of pharmacodynamics to therapeutics, and to create a book that would be useful to students of pharmacology and to physicians. We continue to follow these principles in the 13th edition. The 1st edition was quite successful despite its high price, $12.50, and soon became known as the “blue bible of pharmacology.” The book was evidence of the deep friendship between its authors, and when the Gilmans’ son was born in 1941, he was named Alfred Goodman Gilman. World War II and the relocation of both authors Goodman to Utah, Gilman to Columbia postponed a second edition until 1955. The experience of writing the second edition during a period of accelerating basic research and drug development persuaded the authors to become editors, relying on experts whose scholarship they trusted to contribute individual chapters, a pattern that has been followed ever since.
