Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This book provides a new approach to the teaching of medicinal chemistry. The knowledge of the physical organic chemical basis of drug design and drug action allows the reader to extrapolate to the many related classes of drugs described in standard medicinal chemistry texts. Students gain a solid foundation to base future research endeavours upon - drugs not yet developed are thus covered.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
