Description and Table of Contents

Description

Digital innovation and trusted authorship transform the way biochemistry students learn. For four decades, this extraordinary textbook played a pivotal role in the way biochemistry is taught, offering exceptionally clear writing, innovative graphics, coverage of the latest research techniques and advances, and a signature emphasis on physiological and medical relevance. Those defining features are at the heart of this edition. Biochemistry is now supported in Achieve, Macmillan's new online learning platform, Achieve is the culmination of years of development work put toward creating the most powerful online learning tool for chemistry students. Achieve includes an interactive e-Book as well as our renowned assessments and a variety of multimedia assets. Instructors can assign or download instructor resources and take advantage of powerful analytics and quick insights to inform teaching.
