Cancer drug design and discovery

The ultimate authoritative source of information on the design of new anticancer agents, written by some of the leaders in the field, Cancer Drug Design and Discovery covers a number of recent notable successes as well as discussions of especially promising new therapies. These advances have provided information on targets involved in specific cancers that will hopefully lead to effective medicines for at least some of the common solid tumors. Unique sections explain the basic underlying principles of cancer drug development and provide a practical introduction to modern methods of cancer drug design. © 2008 Elsevier Inc.
