Gregory Haines presents a sweeping account of how pharmacy evolved in Australia — from the rough-and-ready apothecaries of the convict era, through the establishment of professional bodies and regulatory frameworks, to the sophisticated healthcare system that underpins contemporary Australian life. Written as a Bicentennial publication to mark 200 years of Australian nationhood, the work draws on meticulous archival research to reconstruct the lives and contributions of the men and women who shaped the nation's pharmaceutical profession.\n\nHaines writes with the authority of a dedicated historian and insider knowledge of the pharmaceutical world, crafting a narrative that is both rigorously documented and compellingly readable. The book illuminates broader themes of nation-building, public health policy, and the professionalisation of medicine, positioning pharmacy not as a mere trade but as a cornerstone of Australian civic society. Rich in period detail and driven by a genuine sense of national pride, this landmark volume will leave readers wondering just how much of Australia's story has been written in pill and powder.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49210280378587,"sku":"2026200017329-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/0fe7b322-18bf-4c57-8fd4-d6384188e456.png?v=1788268690","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200017329-secondhand-pharmacy-in-australia-the-national-experience","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
