Acknowledgments
I am deeply grateful to the Almighty God who gave me inspi-
ration and courage to conceive the importance of writing this
book and accomplish it successfully.
My deepest gratitude to all my family members who are
my source for love and inspiration. I am thankful to my wife
Yasmeen for her motivation and support that kept me resolute
in the writing process.
I am obliged to thank my sons Abdur Raafay (in A2 level)
and Abdul Hadi (in grade 9) who took keen interest in draw-
ing some of the chemical structures of the inhibitors discussed
in the book.
Of course I cannot forget to mention my 5-year old
daughter Aaminah whose inquisitive company I used to enjoy
while writing the manuscript.
Thanks to my colleagues at our unit and department for
their good wishes.
Thanks to Kelsey Connors, the Editorial Project Manager
at Elsevier, Boston, MA, United States, for her excellent coor-
dination, follow-up, and patience throughout the project.
