Key features

• All art was created by medical illustrators and reviewed by a faculty advisory board made up of members of VIBE (Visualization in Biochemistry Education) Research Group to ensure that all visuals are beautifully accurate and pedagogically sound.
• The concise presentation and organisational choices of the text result from the combined classroom experience of the renowned author team, providing students with a resource they will use during the course and a solid reference for their futures:
• Each chapter builds upon student understanding of fundamentals, presenting the theme of structure and function and covering only the content that students actually need.
• The first several chapters introduce biochemistry as a quantitative science with Chapters 2 and 3 focusing on water, the matrix of life, and bioenergetics. Subsequent chapters present structure and function of biological molecules, followed by intermediary metabolism, and then genetic biochemistry.
• The text presents the principles of biochemical techniques throughout as well as many, diverse real-world applications.
