"The overall quality of the book is high and it will be an
important resource to the modified nucleoside community. The book
contains a number of excellent individual chapters that offer a new
and interesting perspective on the field … I believe that
this book will be an excellent resource for synthesis chemists
looking for summaries of existing strategies to generate a wide
range of modified nucleosides. Along that line, the more clinically
based chapters provide good summaries of the biological activities
of the modified nucleotides. There is a nice balance of older and
newer literature that should be of use to established as well as
novice researchers, and most of the chapters are well referenced
and up-to-date. I would certainly recommend this book to anyone
interested in the bioorganic and medicinal chemistry of modified
nucleosides and nucleic acids." (Journal of the American
Chemical Society, March 25, 2009)
"Herdewijn, with the help of the contributing authors, has assembled a fine collection of well-written and well-edited reviews. This book will be indispensable to students and researchers." (ChemBioChem, January 2009)
