This book is intended to communicate current best practice in pediatric clinical pharmacology and clinical pharmacy with special consideration of the prevailing circumstances and most pressing needs in developing countries. It also addresses measures that may be taken in countries with emerging economies through organizational and political adjustments to reduce unacceptable levels of morbidity and mortality among children and pregnant women with treatable diseases.

In the early stages of his career his research interests focused on biochemical pharmacology, drug hepatotoxicity and drug biotransformation. In 1979 Dr MacLeod became the founding leader of a Division of Pediatric Clinical Pharmacology at Toronto’s Hospital for Sick Children. This University of Toronto unit has now thrived for 35 years and is the world’s leading centre for training and research in pediatric pharmacology and toxicology.

Since 1986, Dr MacLeod has held a major interest in international health with a focus on African maternal-child health. His current scientific interests embrace the multitude of factors that influence safe and effective drug treatments for children and the use of research findings to inform clinical and public policy.
