David Attwood

A revision guide for students giving bullet points of basic information on physical pharmacy. This text is derived from the textbook Physicochemical Principles of Pharmacy and is designed to be used alongside it for those revision periods when time is short. It includes key points, tips, self assessment questions/answers and memory maps to aid with revision.

With this fully updated second edition, readers will gain a detailed understanding of the physics and applications of modern X-ray and EUV radiation sources. Taking into account the most recent improvements in capabilities, coverage is expanded to include new chapters on free electron lasers (FELs), laser high harmonic generation (HHG), X-ray and EUV optics, and nanoscale imaging; a completely revised chapter on spatial and temporal coherence; and extensive discussion of the generation and applications of femtosecond and attosecond techniques. Readers will be guided step by step through the mathematics of each topic, with over 300 figures, 50 reference tables and 600 equations enabling easy understanding of key concepts. Homework problems, a solutions manual for instructors, and links to YouTube lectures accompany the book online. This is the 'go-to' guide for graduate students, researchers and industry practitioners interested in X-ray and EUV interaction with matter.

An established textbook that provides you with full coverage of the physicochemical principles essential to the modern pharmacist and pharmaceutical scientist. This sixth edition has a broad chemical and physicochemical base and covers every aspect of drug properties from the design of dosage forms to their delivery by all routes to sites of action in the body. Now with more clinical examples, new questions and extra case studies.

The thought of Paul Ramsey continues to assert an enormous influence on Christian ethics. In this book, David Attwood provides the first book-length presentation of Paul Ramsey's political ethics since his death, taking into account his last work, Speak Up for Just War or Pacificism. Attwood gives a clear, detailed, and accurate account of Ramsey's work, exposing the coherent logic and systematic thought holding together his theology and ethical applications. This book traces the theological and ethical basis for Ramsey's just war theory, the theological basis for ethics in Christian covenant love and its expression in principles and exceptionless moral rules. Attwood examines the theological foundations of Ramsey's political theory and the way he combined political and ethical analysis in his consideration of the morality of nuclear deterrence. The introductory section sketches Ramsey's career, with the emphasis on his work in politics and just war theory.
