Hallmark features:

Up-to-the-minute information in drug research
Vignettes of special and unusual information, and anecdotes
Discusses drug prototypes from all sources
More comprehensive than other volumes on history of drug discovery
From the reviews:

"…an excellent bibliographic resource for those interested in the background papers that serve as the foundation for discovery of specific drug entities." JOURNAL OF MEDICAL CHEMISTRY, June 2006

"…a very comprehensive overview of drug development. It should be on the shelf on any aspiring pharmacist, medicinal chemist, or person interested in the history of therapeutic agents." JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL EDUCATION, February 2006

"…a very readable and closely researched book…" CHEMISTRY & INDUSTRY, October 2005

Clearly, the areas of greatest interest for both the public and the scientific community are the roles of vitamins C and E in disease prevention, in retarding the progression of age-related chronic and degenerative disorders, and in promoting healthy aging. The introductory chapters provide a concise historical background of vitamins C and E and summarize many important discoveries concerning their biological functions and their roles in prevention of dietary deficiency, chronic disease and oxidative stress. Other chapters detail current research on the biological actions of vitamins C and E in biochemical, cell and physiological systems, and their roles in antioxidative stress-related diseases and disorders. These latter chapters highlight the importance of vitamins C and E in metabolic and inflammatory disorders, in agerelated diseases and in healthy aging.
