One of the best Biochemistry books that I have read including classroom assigned literature and self-discovered books. The layout and content of this book is very efficient and enjoyable to both newbies to the science genre and life long scientists. The authors do a great job of conveying lifetimes of scientific information to the masses in both an educational and stimulating approach. The information is very thorough and up-to-date in the field of Biochemistry. Reading this book with such captivating material in this engaging format was definitely a memorable experience in my education.
This book is a must for any students following an undergraduate course which includes study units in biochemistry. It presents the various biochemical concepts and processes very clearly, making them much easier to understand by the reader. Convenient summaries at the back of each chapter make it easier to revise a chapter quickly while still highlighting all of the important points in that particular chapter. A very helpful book which will definitely be a great aid to me during my university years and beyond. :)
may God bless the man who shall not be named i will never ever ever see you again and i could not be happier! extra thanks to stryer for this amazing book(fyi the metabolism chapter is bad you really should work on it) also i will not give all credits to this book for passing biochem because FFUL pull trough com aquela sebenta! extra thanks to ju that had to memorize all the enzymes names which btw very fucked up🥳🫶🏻
This book helped me a lot through my course in Biochemistry. There was only one issue with this book! It was too heavy to carry around! LOL
Otherwise, it was very well organised and quite well-written with all the pictures and illustrations to help with the understanding of some basic concepts in biochemistry. :)
Great book! I greatly appreciated the paragraphs that were given titles that reflected the topic in that paragraph. It helped to study: one could just read the title and consider re-studying the item or checking it off as "OK, I know that". My edition had an error in the DNA polymerases, which transpired during my exam. I suppose (hope) my professor passed it on.
The newer online editions of this book are just money grabs and full of typos. MacMillan's online HW and test banks that the newer editions provide just allow for lazier and lazier professors--nearly immoral atp. This physical copy was good and cheap, content is well covered.
