Following on the editors two well-received prior books Contemporary Drug Synthesis and The Art of Drug Synthesis (Wiley, 2004 and 2007), this book illustrates how chemistry, biology, pharmacokinetics, and a host of disciplines come together to produce successful medicines. In this new book, the editors have deepened the introduction section, splitting it into several subsections; such as background, pharmacology, SAR, PK/PD, and efficacy and safety. Synthesis remains the focus, as the title signifies, with efforts made to point out the advantages of process synthesis versus the discovery synthetic route. The book features authoritative coverage by a distinguished editors and authors, all well-known in the field (some chapter authors are the actual inventor of the drug), of 20 different drug molecules.
