AB In  this,  the  final  section  of  the  book,  we  are  pleased  to  present  perspectives  from  around  the  world.  These  perspectives  are  presented  by  individuals  with  a  firsthand  knowledge  of  developments  in  their  respective  countries.  Moreover,  they  have  contributed  to  their  “national  dialogue,”  and  have  actively  participated  in  the  development  of  medication  management  services.  Their  observations  serve  to  remind  us  that  it  will  take  a  global  effort  to  establish  the  urgency  of  the  problem  at  hand  and  demonstrate  the  central  role  to  be  played  by  pharmacy  in  meeting  the  universal  need  for  medication  management  services.  Pharmaceutical  “misadventuring”  is  a  growing  problem  that  requires  immediate  attention.  The  content  of  these  reports  reveals  that  consciousness  is  increasing  and  pharmacy  is  poised  to  participate  with  other  health  care  professionals  to  address  the  problem  with  the  necessary  knowledge  and  analytic  skills  to  make  a  significant  contribution  to  human  health  and  the  economic  consequences  of  drug-related  morbidity  and  mortality.
