Highlight of this book

This book not only covers small-molecule drugs but also introduces biologics, including monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, ASOs, siRNAs, and CAR-T cell therapy. Most of the existing PK textbooks focus on small-molecule drugs only. I consider Part III of my book a big advantage compared to other PK textbooks. Read more

Highlight of this book series

Like a time machine, this entertaining and educational drug history book series will carry you to the past so that you can witness many fascinating stories behind many miracle drugs that changed the world. The history of each of them is a saga containing many elements: exploration, curiosity, adventure, and conquest.

To keep readers engaged, I intentionally kept each story short and the book thin. These books are books 1&2 of the series of stories behind the drugs that changed the world. There will be more books in this series!
