Description

Drug discovery is extremely expensive and time consuming. This handbook outlines computational methods of drug discovery and design, showing how they are applied and the pitfalls to avoid. Practical examples are used to illustrate the scope and limitations of each method with an emphasis on making the industrial process more efficient in terms of cost and time.
