From the reviews: "This book covers some of the tools and techniques involved in rational drug design with a series of case studies designed to act as a compendium of methods and protocols intended for readers to adopt or modify. ... The book would therefore make interesting reading to any student or investigator looking to gain a wider appreciation of strategies and activities across different disciplines or unfamiliar projects in the early drug discovery phase as well as the primary target audience of organic/medicinal chemists and molecular biologists."
