Reviews

"The strength of the book is its mix of molecular, quantitative, experimental, and functional perspectives on receptor pharmacology. . . The breadth of information in this book makes it a useful book for an introductory course on receptor pharmacology; this broad scope combined with its clear and concise presentation makes the book nearly unique with respect to other materials available for such a course." -Thomas L. Pazdernik, PhD, University of Kansas Medical Center
