it's a great book for med students. to me, it has a lot of unnecessary facts about discoveries related to molecular biology. that's why i didn't give it 5 stars. i can sense why they're relevant, but i personally didn't enjoy it. i'm reviewing it just so i can get to my reading goal of this year, lol.
