Joseph Fink from the University of Kentucky creates a comprehensive guide to legal issues facing pharmacists and pharmacy students. The book covers federal regulations governing controlled substances, constitutional protections during government inspections, and pharmaceutical regulation frameworks. Fink examines civil liability questions that arise in daily practice and essential business law principles. He includes condensed reviews of real civil and criminal pharmacy cases to illustrate legal principles in action.
