Enzymes are the molecular machines that make life possible. Working as catalysts, teams of enzymes carry out the processes that power the bodies of living things, from making DNA to digesting food. This book explains what enzymes are, what they do, and how they do it, from enzymes inside our cells to those in washing powders and food production.

Nadia Abbott AMRSB, The Biologist A fairly comprehensive textbook that provides a decent technical grounding in enzymology and will no doubt teach many professional biologists a thing or two

Lucy Elphick, The Biochemist This book would be an excellent accompaniment to an undergraduate biology student or someone with a scientific background who wishes to know more about enzymology.

Mary Staunton, University College Dublin Today It would be perfect for students who want to have a (somewhat more than) basic understanding of the subject before delving deeper ... my overall understanding of the subject is more rounded. Thanks Professor Engel!
