In this seventh edition, 10 chapters have been substantially revised to address recent developments and incorporate new information, illustrations, and equations and up-to-date literature citations. The appendix has been expanded to include parameters for some 150 additional drugs, bringing the total to more than 790.

Chapters on the following topics have been updated: Absorption/Transport Mechanisms, Physicochemical and Biological Factors Affecting in vivo Performance of Drugs, Drug Biotransformation, Excretion and Clearance of Drugs, Pediatric Pharmacokinetics, First-Dose Size in Man, Correlation of Clinical Response with Drug Disposition, Bioavailability and Bioequivalence, Extracorporeal Methods of Drug Removal, and Pharmacogenetics and Pharmacogenomics.
