The Journal

Spanner in the works!

From Mr M. Henderson, CEng

The graphic on the front cover of your issue of 4 May has confirmed the long-standing argument in our house (my wife is a pharmacist, I am an engineer) that pharmacists struggle with the logic of mechanics and applied science.

It is unfortunate, but I am sure the irony of the mechanism is not lost on your readers, ie, the component sprockets around the centre (identify, plan, act, evaluate, record) will operate fine together as a group but when the central cog (officialdom?) is introduced, the whole system locks up! Is this the cunning plan?
