Novel Frontiers in the Production of Compounds for Biomedical Use edited by A. van Broekhoven, Fred Shapiro, Jozef Anné.

The present book entitled “Novel Frontiers in the Production of Compounds for Biomedical Uses” can perhaps be placed in its best perspective by the Shakespearean character in The Tempest who exclaimed" What’s past is prologue”. Indeed, this compilation of some of the outstanding presentations i...
