Stephen Curry was Professor of Pharmacology at The London Hospital Medical College, Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Florida, and Professor of Pharmacology and Physiology at the University of Rochester before founding ADispell. He also spent ten years with AstraZeneca and predecessor companies. A graduate of De Montfort University and King's College London, he was honoured by the Faculty of Medicine of London University with the award of the Doctor of Medical Science Degree and is a Fellow of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society. As CEO of ADispell, he currently works in the field of technology transfer and translational science with early stage companies based on discoveries at The University of Rochester  and Cornell University.Robin Whelpton, after obtaining his first degree in Applied Chemistry, joined the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics, The London Hospital Medical College, University of London as research assist to Professor Curry. Having obtained his PhD in Pharmacology, he became Lecturer and then Senior Lecturer before transferring to Queen Mary University of London to teach pharmacology to preclinical medical and dental students. His last post before retiring was Senior Lecturer in Pharmaceutical Chemistry in the School of Biological and Chemical Sciences. He has wealth of experience teaching drug distribution and pharmacokinetics to undergraduate and postgraduate students of medicine, dentistry, pharmacology, pharmacy, biomedical sciences, pharmaceutical chemistry and forensic science.

"Another book on PK? Yes and there should be and it should be DD & PK. It is good, unique, and does fill a currently unmet need for those working in the xenobiotic arena. DD & PK is just like the perfect mystery novel—the one “you just can’t put down.” However, unlike a mystery novel which requires only one reading to find the answer, the reader of DD & PK will learn more than an answer to a single question. The reader will find many solutions to a wide variety of mysterious problems associated with the time course and actions of xenobiotics." International Journal of Toxicology, September 2018, Reviewed by John A. Budny, PhD, President, PharmaCal, Ltd"This book has many innovations that make a welcome addition to the bookshelves of a wide range of pharmaceutical scientists. The effective use of figures and tables to summarize and clarify a wide range of issues is to be commended, as are the learning objectives at the start of the chapter coupled with the summary at the end providing a succinct way in understanding the objectives of the chapter and together with links to a website provides accessibility for all from the neophyte pharmacokineticist to the consultant physician. A book all in the Pharma industry should be aware of." Int. J. of Pharmacokinetics"Overall, the book is written in a professional manner, the explanations are clear and simple, and the authors use drug-specific PK data to reinforce the critical concepts of each chapter..." One particular strength of this book is its excellent use of full color figures/pictures, as well as clinically relevant drug examples, both of which reinforce the concepts described throughout"...."In conclusion, the principles reviewed in this book and companion website provide a strong introductory knowledge base in PK, which should prepare readers to perform PK calculations, interpret PK literature, and consider PK properties when studying the clinical use of drugs." CPT, Aug 17"In summary, this is an excellent textbook for students new to the field of pharmaceutics and medical, pharmacy, and veterinary students, particularly those who envision a career in drug development research in either academia or industry." Veterinary Pathology Review, 2018
