Many of us think nothing of taking a painkiller to ease a headache, or to relieve the symptoms of 'flu. But how do drugs have their effect in the human body? How are new drugs discovered and designed to be as effective as possible? An Introduction to Medicinal Chemistry offers an engaging insight into the one field of chemistry that arguably has the greatest impact on our quality of life than any other. Newly structured into four parts, the book opens in Part A with an introduction to pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. Pharmacodynamics considers the types of molecular targets used by drugs, the interactions which are involved when a drug meets that target, and the consequences of those interactions. Pharmacokinetics considers the issues involved in a drug reaching its target in the first place. Part B goes on to examine the general principles and strategies involved in discovering and designing new drugs and developing them for the marketplace, while Part C looks at particular 'tools of the trade' which are invaluable in those processes. Finally, Part D covers a selection of specific topics within medicinal chemistry. Reflecting a change in emphasis in medicinal chemistry research, this Part takes us from the largely trial-and-error approach to drug design to the rational approach, and explores the most recent advances in molecular biology and genetics which have revolutionised drug design. With a striking new two-colour text design, and greatly enriched learning features, the third edition conveys the fascination of working in a field which overlaps the disciplines of chemistry, biochemistry, physiology, microbiology, cell biology, and pharmacology. A must-have textbook for any student of medicinal chemistry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Value, Lots of Information

I believe this textbook is priced fairly. There is a lot of information, helpful graphics, and good organization. One of the few physical textbooks I bothered purchasing outright rather than borrowing or purchasing used.

I'm glad I bought this textbook. It's one that I'm planning on keeping for reference even after my medicinal chemistry class is finished. It's very well organized, there's a lot of real world examples and case studies, and a lot of genuinely interesting peices of information about medicinal chemistry. Sometimes I just flip to a page and read it for fun. Also the price is equivalent to what my campus bookstore was selling it for.
