Review
The subjects chosen are at the interface of chemistry, biochemistry and biology and should appeal to practitioners of all threee disciplines...Notwithstanding these few problems I like this little book. I think it fills a niche market in what is undoubtedly a growing field of drug research, and I intend to make use of it in my medicinal chemistry modules./D.Cairns/Chemistry in Britain.
