Description

This new biochemistry text features a modern, chemical approach, always explaining the underlying chemistry of key biochemical molecules and reactions while taking advantage of recent developments. Features a true thematic and modern approach with a strong emphasis on research. Retains core topics of biochemistry, using real examples of chemical reactions and molecular structures. Emphasis on depth of coverage, rather than breadth. Integrated media provides review of difficult concepts, molecular structure tutorials, and interactive animations.
