Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Highly useful!
The present book, written in a precise and concise manner, illustrates efficiently the development of medicinal chemistry providing the reader an insight of this increasingly imperative field.
Rating: - highly informative
With the level of interest in pharmaceuticals never being higher, this timely contribution is a home run. This is a must for organic and medicinal chemists and for anyone who wants obtain accurate information on important drugs.
Rating: - Outstanding!!!
I strongly recommend this book, it is well organized, outstandingly illustrated, and a great guide to students, undergraduate and graduate, of enticing and valuable compounds.
Rating: - Awesome!
This is really a very interesting book that touches on some important aspects of drugs while covering the real breakthroughs in this field. The individual summaries on each of the drugs are very helpful, though brief and thus incomplete. However, you really do need a background in organic chemistry and biology to get the most out of it-- the book is oddly accessible and out of read at the same time.
Rating:  - Molecules and Medicine
This book did not meet my expectations. I was hoping to find interesting stories about the development of these medicines and why they were developed for their diseases, but did not find this in this book.
