Product Description

The new edition of Clinical Biochemistry covers all aspects of the subject needed by medical students. It is a volume in the Illustrated Colour Text series, with the subject matter divided into double-page spreads; this makes the information very accessible to the reader. Full use is made of

Flow charts and other graphics;
clinical 'boxes'; summary points; case histories; and clinical photographs.

The whole orientation of the book is to concentrate on how clinical biochemistry relates to the care of the patient and to ensure that the medical student understands how to interpret laboratory results. By contrast, the reader is not overburdened by descriptions of laboratory techniques.

Customer Reviews

excellent resource
I'm not a big one for reading things in consecuetive order, as I tend to get distracted, but this book answered all my questions as I asked them. Really clearly written with good example cases to test your knowledge on. Excellent diagrams. I wish I had found it earlier!

Perfect for degree level
I used this for my clinical biochem and pathology modules at uni - explains the tests, techniques, reference ranges and also goes into genetics of disease. Brilliant basically - really easy to understand and a lot of information included - also pretty thin so nice and light for dragging around lectures!

GAW
This book is great for explaining complex biochemistry in ley terms. A great starting point.
