Biography
Drs. Cooper and Nicola were introduced to each other by CRC Press editor Hilary Rowe during a natural products conference. Inspired to pursue his passion for natural products by his former high school chemistry teacher, Dr. Cooper credits his longevity in the field to the great people and teams he has had the good fortune and privilege of working with. He says that one of the most rewarding aspects of his work has been the satisfaction that comes from being part of a team that is able to bring new products of natural product origin to market.
"Natural Products Chemistry is a great basic overview of pharmacognosy that will be useful for undergraduate classes or introductory graduate work in this field. The text is written in a straightforward and accessible manner, aptly lending itself to use both in classes and in labs. In this regard, the book accomplishes its goals of introducing the varied field of pharmacognosy and establishing the discipline as vibrant, diverse, and constantly applicable and necessary to human society. I certainly would recommend its use in universities, medical schools, and pharmacy programs."

"... a well-written and interesting look at the entirety of natural products chemistry.
This text can certainly accomplish the goal of the authors, which is to encourage and inspire future generations of scientists to explore the world of natural products."— Kevin J. Tidgewell, Duquesne University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in the Journal of Natural Products, September 2016, http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acs.jnatprod.6b00816.
