Many new antileukotriene drugs are now marketed as antiasthma drugs andrepresent the first new drugs in this field since the 1970s. This bookcovers the steps that have led to the discovery and development of thesenew drugs and offers detailed descriptions of their clinicalapplications. The review chapters on the main aspects of basic andapplied leukotriene research are written by leading specialists in thefield, and the volume takes a new approach in presenting information ofparticular interest to both scientists and clinicians in the fields ofasthma, inflammation and allergic diseases.
