Sommario/riassunto

About the Book:  This book provides exposition of the subject both in its general and algebraic aspects. It deals with the notions of topological spaces, compactness, connectedness, completeness including metrizability and compactification, algebraic aspects of topological spaces through homotopy groups and homology groups. It begins with the basic notions of topological spaces but soon going beyond them reaches the domain of algebra through the notions of homotopy, homology and cohomology. How these approaches work in



harmony is the subject matter of this book. The book finally arrives at the

Sommario/riassunto

This book casts new light on the field of oral drug absorption. It outlines both the concept of the past and the novel concept of Finite



Absorption Time (FAT). In addition, the authors explore the correlated need for re-definition of bioavailability, bioequivalence providing a plethora of experimental data. Accordingly, this book is intended for academics/students or scientists working in pharmaceutical industries, regulatory agencies, and contract research organizations. It can be used for teaching purposes in under- and post-graduate courses dealing with biopharmaceutics, pharmacokinetics and biomedical engineering. This excellent text serves as a historical review of drug absorption kinetics and its application to bioavailability and bioequivalence. However, its main thrust is the application of the authors' innovative new approaches to modifying these processes utilizing concepts of finite absorption time (FAT) and physiologically based finite time pharmacokinetic (PBFTPK) models. The work described in detail is based on the innovative experimental studies, many in depth examples and simulations, and the authors' outstanding theoretical contributions to our understanding of drug gastrointestinal absorption, and drug pharmacokinetics. I found the book to be an enjoyable and enlightening read.
