Description
Developed from a symposium held in Los Angeles, CA, September 1988. The contributions explore how a variety of statistical and computer modeling techniques can be used to design biologically active mechanisms, elucidate the pertinent structure-activity relationships, and define the characteristics of receptor and receptor-ligand interactions. An introductory section focuses on historical perspectives, with subsequent chapters providing broad coverage of agrochemical, drug, and toxicity mechanisms. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
