Heroes of Pharmacy: Professional Leadership in Times of Change (2nd Ed)

Heroes of Pharmacy: Professional Leadership in Times of Change, 2nd Edition" presents the highlights of the professional lives of 52 American Pharmacists (and the 20 founders of the American Pharmaceutical Association) who helped change the way we use medicines, not only in the United States, but worldwide. They also changed the profession of pharmacy. Through the lives of these professionals, we witness the personal commitments that changed pharmacy education from an informal apprenticeship to a Doctor of Pharmacy degree. Readers will gain insight about the lives of college founders and college presidents. It offers insights into two centuries of professional progress in education, community and institutional practice, manufacturing, government, publishing, association leadership, and military service. It features dozens of photographs from the American Pharmacists Association Foundation archives.
