Description
This book charts the progress of drug discovery from the early days to the present, linking seemingly fragmented and unconnected findings to furnish a complete and unique perspective on the evolution of modern medicines. It offers a lively, highly readable account of an intriguing subject, encompassing a vast field of knowledge in a succinct and comprehensive manner so as to impart something of the excitement and drama that must have accompanied each new discovery. The aim of the book, has been to create a wider understanding amongst health care professionals of how the medicines they routinely handle came to be developed. This should help to overcome the inevitable confusion caused by the ever-increasing range of new drugs and thereby instil greater confidence in their handling amongst doctors, pharmacists, nurses and dentists.
