With a focus on functional relationships between drugs and their targets, this book covers basic and general pharmacology, from a cellular and molecular perspective, with a particular attention to the mechanisms of drug action the fundamental basis for proper clinical use without neglecting toxicology and pharmacokinetics.
With a focus on functional relationships between drugs and their targets, this book covers basic and general pharmacology, from a cellular and molecular perspective, with particular attention  to the mechanisms of drug action – the fundamental basis for proper clinical use- without neglecting clinical application, toxicology and pharmacokinetics.

•    Covers cell and molecular pharmacology, bringing together current research on regulation of drug targets, at a level appropriate for advanced undergrad and graduate students
•    Discusses the relevance of pharmacokinetics and drug development for the clinical application of drugs
•    Presents material from the perspective of drug targets and interaction, the theoretical basis of drug action analysis, and drug properties
•    Focuses on structure-function relationships of drug targets – informing about their biochemical and physiologic functions and experimental and clinical pathways for drug discovery and development
•    Has a companion website that offers a host of resources: short additional chapters about methodology, topics at the forefront of research, and all figures and tables from the book

Francesco Clementi is a Professor Emeritus of Pharmacology at the University of Milan. He has been President of several national and international societies and is member of the Accademia dei Lincei, the prestigious Academy of Italian Sciences. He authored over 200 publications dealing with neurotransmitter receptors and co-edited several books on neuropharmacology and cell biology including all four editions of the Italian language version of this book, Farmacologia Generale e Molecolare. Guido Fumagalli has been the Dean of Faculty Director of the PhD School of Translational Medicine, Vice-Provost for Research, and Vice-Provost for International Affairs at the University of Verona. He has over 80 publications in international journals to his credit along with numerous books on pharmacology and sports science
