Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Save Money; Buy the 2nd Edition.
The "Updated" parts of this 3rd Edition do not significantly enhance the quality of presentation for biochemical concepts. The "Essential Questions"
are not essential and can be found in the Study Guide to the 2nd Edition.
It is a whole lot cheaper to purchase a 2nd Edition + Study Guide than to waste money on the 3rd Edition textbook just because it is "NEW" and shiny.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Excellent book
This book has been very helpful in understanding the complex topics in biochemistry such as protein folding. Very well written for the beginning biochemistry student who only has a general background in chemistry and biology



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Great Bio-Chem Book
This book is very detailed and covers a wide range of bio-chemistry information.
