First sentence: In surveying developments since Volume I was published in 1992, it is clear that the needs of the pharmaceutical industry continue to be a major driving force for development of new and cost-effective methods for manufacturing optically active materials and, inevitably, much of the content of this volume is pharmaceutically oriented.
