Description
Alkaloids are a major group of natural products derived from a wide variety of organisms, which are widely used as medicinal and biological
agents. This series is world-renowned as the leading compilation of current reviews of this vast field.
Internationally acclaimed
for more than forty years,
The Alkaloids , founded by the late Professor R.H.F. Manske, continues to provide outstanding
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 organisms, or various terrestrial animals. Each volume provides, through its distinguished
authors, 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: Chemistry and Biology endures as
an essential reference for all natural product chemists and biologists who have an interest in alkaloids, their diversity, and their
unique biological profile.
