Oral administration is the dominant method of delivering drugs to the human systemic blood circulation because of its safety and simplicity. Thus, great interest has been focused within pharmaceutical science on the design of oral dosage forms with optimal therapeutic properties. The prevailing oral dosage form today is the tablet due to its elegance. Tablets of various types and biopharmaceutical properties—from conventional, disintegrating tablets, to advanced modified release systems—exist, but their common denominator is the way in which they are formed, i.e., powder compaction.

Physical and technological aspects of this process, from a pharmaceutical point of view, are the theme of this book.
