Book review
|
I got the first edition. Its hard back and huge!!1975!!!
Its concise and facilitates what i need and for the cost is good for value. Just a shame the product ordered was not entirely correct though and is over 30yrs old. The content though is adequate and the seller is good.

Fascinating
|
I haven't done any chemistry for over 20 years. I bought this on a whim and it's got me completely hooked. The book starts with basic introductions on the structure of DNA and proteins and then delves into ever more detail. It's easy to follow, consistently interesting and so well laid out that you find your knowledge increasing steadily as you read.
In order to get the best from the book, you'd probably need to have A level chemistry or similar but I'm managing to understand it despite my memory of organic chemistry being pretty dim.

Excellent Biochemistry Textbook
|
|
This book provides detailed information on all subjects covered by the biochemistry modules in my degree. The layout is systematic, and the diagrams are very useful. I would recommend this to any student looking for a comprehensive biochemistry text to last throughout their degree.

a good first year book.....
|
As a first year Biochemistry student at the University of Warwick I would defiantly recommend this book to anyone who is taking a degree in Biology/Biochemistry/Microbiology. At Warwick our course follows the content of the book and gives us the recommended reading pages for each topic. If you have studied A-level Biology I think you will find this book very easy to follow and easy on the eye. It assumes only knowlege of biochemistry up to A-level standard and then slowly builds to give a very thorough level of understanding.

Biochemistry ~ Lodish et la
|
|
Preferred the forth edition but still a great undergraduate text. It has all the detail required for the first two years of my course and far ahead of the likes of Lippincott's which was not only poor on detail but I thought there are inaccuracies.
