BEST OF PHYSICAL SCIENCES AND MATHEMATICS IN 2008 Professional and Scholarly Publishing Division of the American Association of Publishers Inc. "Arranged by disease, Molecules and Medicine explores the discovery, application and mode of action of more than 100 of the most significant drug molecules now in use in modern medicine. In the view of the judges, the book’s outstanding achievement is in bringing together the extraordinarily diverse elements of molecular medicine into an interactively manageable form; in the quality of its four color production of molecular images; and the assuredness of its prose. The extraordinary result is what we have come to expect from lead author E.J. Corey, emeritus professor of chemistry at Harvard, and 1990 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry." |
