O knihe:

Recent achievements in the synthesis of lipids and long-chain fatty acids have often escaped mention in texts dealing with more general aspects of organic chemistry. Yet the synthesis of lipids is an important area of research, leading to nature-identical products and analogues.
The therapeutic value of lipidic compounds in human diseases is well known from the time of their use in the treatment of leprosy. In particular, frierucin, better known as 'lorenzo's oil', is an example of a novel use of lipids in the treatment of disease. Chapters in this book deal with the properties of lipids in cell walls and their implications for the treatment of cancer.
