In this update of Transdermal drug delivery: developmental issues and research initiatives , Guy (U. of Geneva, U. of Lyon) and Hadgradt (U. of Greenwich, Chatham, UK) note that this edition reflects renewed interest in this drug administration route due to further knowledge and innovations in compounds for transcending the barrier properties of the skin. In this reference volume of 11 contributions providing a state-of-the-field snapshot of advances and continuing challenges, international contributors discuss mathematical models, methods (including minimally invasive ones), and in vitro studies of dermal and transdermal drug delivery. Regulatory issues are also discussed. Though the date of the first edition is not given, it is noted that it was compiled in the late 1980s. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
