Preface The aim of this first-ever book entitled Computational Protein Design (CPD) is to bring the latest know-how on the CPD methods in respect to the process, success, and pitfalls of the field. The book is organized so as to introduce and present the general methodology and main challenges followed by a description of specific software and applications. As seen in the description below, there is more than one way to cluster the different chapters, each highlighting a different aspect of the field. While there has not been a book dedicated to CPD, books on protein design have often included chapters on CPD. Here, following a chapter on the framework of CPD (Chapter 1)
