Computational drug design: a guide for computational and medicinal chemists

This book fills a gap in the available selection of books on drug design. It covers all of the major computational drug design techniques in use today, andputs them in the framework of the drug design process. It also tabulates relative accuracy studies to give an unbiased comparison of the accuracy of available techniques. The existing books tend to address pieces of this information leaving the reader to piece together a complete picture of the computational drug design process. Computational Drug Design will give the reader a solid perspective on the entire breadth of the field of computational drug design, moving from the design process, to the chemistry, to a discussion of every major computational technique in use today. This should make it an excellent learningsource for anyone learning to do drug design--both the novice entering the field and the experienced researcher will find the approach insightful in their work. Compilations of accuracy data for the existing techniques will make it an especially useful reference for any researcher to own.
