From the reviews of the second edition: "The book comprises 16 chapters written by 24 authors from academic and industrial laboratories in the U.S. The book is suitable for a wide audience of industrial and academic pharmaceutical scientists interested in a broad introduction to biopharmaceutical technology within the context of drug design and development. … Overall, the book is well written with an excellent nine-page index. The chapters are generally well illustrated. … it would be a valuable addition to industrial and academic libraries." (Aliasger K. Salem, Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, Vol. 51 (19), 2008) "This book is an update of the first edition of Biopharmaceutical Drug Development … . this book is dedicated to quite detailed discussion of the impact the various ‘omic’ technologies have had on drug discovery and design. … Overall, this is quite a useful reference book for toxicologists working in the biopharmaceutical sector, particularly if they are still getting to grips with the various ‘omics’ technologies and areas such stem cell therapy and gene silencing."
