"The editor has assembled an interesting collection of synthetic methods for preparing peptidomimetics...This book will clearly be of value to those who are interested in synthesizing nonpeptidic analogues of small peptide ligands."-Journal of Medicinal Chemistry "the editor does an excellent job of bringing together a variety of different chemical syntheses that are relevant to peptide, peptidomimetic, combinatorial and medicinal chemistry. Each chapter is written in the same general format of introduction, materials, methods, notes and references, which is always valuable for a book that will be regularly consulted. In addition, many of these are reported by acknowledged leaders in the field... includes a number of novel amino acid syntheses that will be extremely valuable to those scientists trying to understand the underlying medicinal chemistry of peptides... the contents of this book are extremely valuable and I have no doubt it will find its way into many of the world's leading industrial and academic organic chemistry laboratories."-Drug Discovery Today
