The editorial board for Pharmacy Management in Canada sincerely thanks the 56 contributing authors and 41 reviewers who volunteered their time and expertise to make this textbook a uniquely Canadian, quality educational tool.
We would also like to recognize the Board of Directors at the Canadian Foundation for Pharmacy (CFP), who put the capital at risk to make this project a reality. Without their vision, this project would not have taken flight. They saw the need for this textbook in the pharmacy community and provided the much-needed support to set events in motion. The journey toward a finished product was achieved under the expert direction of Dayle Acorn, CFP’s Executive Director.
Since 1945, the Canadian Foundation for Pharmacy has fulfilled its mandate of advancing the profession of pharmacy. Through the Innovation Fund, CFP has supported a number of research projects that are focussed on demonstrating the value that pharmacists can contribute to the Canadian healthcare system. We hope that this textbook will also contribute to the advancement of the profession by helping to develop the next generation of pharmacists.
We would also like to extend our gratitude to Christine LeBlanc, managing editor, for keeping this project moving and grounded in sound editorial context. And we thank Brush Education, which provided the steady guidance of a publishing house to see this project to completion.
