Abstract

Dewick has set out to produce a reduced-sized text highlighting those features of organic chemistry that would be most useful to students of pharmacy and related fields. His purpose is to “provide thorough grounding in fundamental chemical principles” and, simultaneously, to illustrate these principles with wide a array of pharmaceutical and biochemical examples.
