Art of Drug Synthesis

The Art of Drug Synthesis illustrates how chemistry, biology,
pharmacokinetics, and a host of other disciplines come together to
produce successful medicines. The authors have compiled a
collection of 21 representative categories of drugs, from which
they have selected as examples many of the best-selling drugs on
the market today. An introduction to each drug is provided, as well
as background to the biology, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and
drug metabolism, followed by a detailed account of the drug
synthesis.

* Edited by prominent scientists working in drug discovery for
Pfizer

* Meets the needs of a growing community of researchers in
pharmaceutical R&D

* Provides a useful guide for practicing pharmaceutical
scientists as well as a text for medicinal chemistry students

* An excellent follow-up to the very successful first book by
these editors, Contemporary Drug Synthesis, but with all new
therapeutic categories and drugs discussed.
