False jalap was turning up in New York's drug barrels in 1852, and this journal's chemists set out to catch it. The College of Pharmacy's first volume mixes detective work on adulterated scammony and jalap with committee reports and shop-counter science. Pharmacy becoming a profession, in real time, article by article. For readers who like their history straight from the source.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
