Book Description:
This work brigdges the compartmentalized undergraduate organic and biochemistry and biology subjects to the pharmacology and the clinical areas a modern pharmacy practice requires. The changes and constantly increasing responsibilities of today’s pharmacist have dictated a restructuring of the pharmacy curriculum, including individual course content. This book reflects and addresses these developments. This is a well-written work that covers most major areas of pharmaceutical research. The text is presented in a logical and concise fashion being divided into chapters based upon therapeutic topic. This makes the work very useful for teaching a course in medicinal chemistry since therapeutic areas can be separately covered without having to make use of the entire book which overall contains a tremendous amount of information. This book is a significant contribution to understanding what medicinal chemistry is and how this science is used to develop new therapeutic agents.

Summary: minimal coverage of medicinal chemistry
Rating: 2
Anyone wishing a more comprehensive treatment should utilize Foye’s Medicinal Chemistry or Goodman and Gillmans work.
Summary: Almost Perfect!
Rating: 4
This book is very good introduction in the major aspects of the chemistry of the drugs. It explains with good schemes the reactions of drugs and others important mechanisms. But in my opinion it is necessary a chapter to explains the analytical methods that are being used nowadays in this field like HPLC,NMR,Mass spectroscopy and so on, for searching the drugs process thru the living system.
