An Introduction to Medicinal Chemistry, 7th Edition

The best general undergraduate textbook on medicinal chemistry. This new edition retains the accessible style of writing, but provides important updates on the topics. * Dr Mark Ashton, School of Pharmacy, Newcastle University, UK *
I read this masterpiece to build a strong knowledge of medicinal chemistry and it has helped me a lot. I would definitely recommend it to others. Detailed explanations of enzyme-substrate interactions and much more are very useful. * Jinkal Gondaria, MChem student, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK *
A very useful medical chemistry book and teaching tool. Great learning resources and easy to digest content. * Dr Silvia M.M.A. Pereira-Lima, Department of Chemistry, University of Minho, Portugal *
