内容説明

This student companion complements the main text "Biochemistry and Molecular Biology" by W. H. Elliott and D. C. Elliott. It helps students to make the most effective use of their study 1-1 time as they progress through the parent text, using the following teaching and learning tools: A brief Summary of each chapter which gives an overview of the highlighted topics. A checklist of Learning objectives for the student to keep track of their progress. The walk through the chapter in a fill-in-the-blank workbook style. Figure reproductions from the text with fill-in-the-blank boxes over key terms used in each figure. Review of problems from the end of the chapter of the main text, which give a more complete answer with necessary background information. Additional problems for each chapter, with answers in a section at the end of the book. In addition Useful study tips, and a Review of some principles of organic chemistry. The book will be an invaluable help to undergraduates studying the main text as part of a course in Biology, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Medicine, and Pharmacy. John R. Jefferson is Associate Professor of Chemistry at Luther College, Decorah, Iowa.
