Beskrivning

Biochemistry: The Molecular Basis of Life is an intermediate, one-semester text written for students on degree pathways in Chemistry, Biology, and other Health and Life Sciences. Designed for students who need a solid introduction to biochemistry, but are not specializing in the subject, the text focuses on essential biochemical principles that underpin the modern life sciences, and offers the most balanced coverage of chemistry and biology of any text on the market. The text equips students with a complete view of the living state, emphasizes problem solving, and applies biochemical principles to the fields of Health, Agriculture, Engineering, and Forensics, to show students the relevance of their learning. McKee and McKee is respected for its balance of biology and chemistry, consistently placing biochemical principles into the context of the physiology of the cell and biomedical applications.

Recensioner i media

McKee's Biochemistry is by far the best available textbook on the market for a one semester undergraduate Biochemistry course. It is very reader-friendly and has a better flow than most Biochemistry textbooks. This textbook goes beyond being a good reference book for students. Several features like key concepts, medical correlations, chapter summaries, 'Biochemistry in Perspective,' and end-of-chapter problems help guide learning and provide valuable study materials.
