I like this book for reference. It is pretty basic. I honestly didn't use most of the book because I am most comfortable with dimensional analysis and this book covers different ways to calculate dosages. Dimensional analysis was only a small section of this book. Our instructor encouraged us to stick with calculating the way that works best for us. This book was pretty well organized and easy to follow which I was grateful for.
