'No doubt `Stryer' will remain the bible for biochemistry undergraduates for many more years to come.'

Paul Craig, Rochester Institute of Technology
'I really like the chemical and structural approach to describing the changes in the molecules and the energetics involved.'

Dr Lorenzo Frigerio, University of Warwick
‘Nice updates, nice web resource. The organisation of some topics has improved (i.e. Glycolysis and Gluconeogenesis in the same chapter).'

Excellent Biochemistry Textbook
This book provides detailed information on all subjects covered by the biochemistry modules in my degree. The layout is systematic, and the diagrams are very useful. I would recommend this to any student looking for a comprehensive biochemistry text to last throughout their degree.

a good first year book.....
As a first year Biochemistry student at the University of Warwick I would defiantly recommend this book to anyone who is taking a degree in Biology/Biochemistry/Microbiology. At Warwick our course follows the content of the book and gives us the recommended reading pages for each topic.
If you have studied A-level Biology I think you will find this book very easy to follow and easy on the eye.
It assumes only knowlege of biochemistry up to A-level standard and then slowly builds to give a very thorough level of understanding.

A Must Have.
I'm an undergraduate student studying Clinical Sciences. I borrowed this book and found I was referring back to it more than the books I bought for the other course units! This book is very thorough, it flows well and all topics are covered well. It's also surprisingly easy to read. Anyone studying biological/health science should have this book
