CUSTOMER REVIEWS
From the reviews:
"This book … covers many different aspects of the origin, chemistry, and biosynthesis of one of the oldest but most important classes of anticancer agents. … In summary, the book is nicely produced, very well edited, and should serve as a valuable source of information … . This book will serve as an inspiration for scientists and students in the areas of chemistry, drug discovery, and biological evaluation. It should be an essential addition to institutional library collections … ." (Waldemar Priebe, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 131 (23), 2009)
