The Alkaloids: Chemistry and Pharmacology: 41

Description

This serial, founded by the late Professsor Richard H.F. Manske, continues to provide coverage of the rapidly expanding field of the chemotaxonomy, structure elucidation, synthesis, biosynthesis, and biology of all classes of alkaloids from higher and lower plants, marine origin, or various terrestrial animals. Each volume provides, through its distinguished editors, up-to-date and detailed coverage of particular classes or sources of alkaloids. Over the years, this series has become the standard in natural product chemistry to which all other book series aspire. "The Alkaloids" endures as an important reference for all natural product chemists who have an interest in alkaloids, their diversity, and their unique biological profile.
