Description

NEW EDITION!!!

This new edition contains updated illustrations, charts, and tables in color!

EXCELLENT USMLE BOARD REVIEW!

Emphasizes the metabolic pathways (carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids) and their diseases.

For medical students and other health professionals. Includes a large color map of "Biochemistry Land" (an amusement park in which clinical biochemistry can be visualized as a whole). Medical students often complain that their biochemistry courses do not focus on clinical relevance. This book, while not a reference book or a dissertation on all aspects of biochemistry, selects the most clinically relevant material that every clinician should know, and presents it in a way that enables the student to quickly see the subject as a conceptual whole.

For biochemistry courses.

make bioche so much fun and ridiculouse easy to remember!!!

To prepare my medical exams, I have to read tons of books. But this book prepare me so well in my nutrition and pharmacology class. I can talk and discuss with professors like pro. The book has an outstanding mindmap: A biochemistry amusement park!!!!!. Instead of list all those boring reactions and chemistry compounds base on organ system. The book catagorizes the reaction based on main powerhouse, carbonhydrateland... Lots of fun to read the map during the study. I spend 2 nights to finish the book and then another 10 or 15 minutes to memorize the biochemistry mind-map. The pass the exams like a piece of cake. Thank you Dr. Stephen Goldberg, you did a great job and help a lousy and lazy student like me a lot!!! I love biochemistry and all those hormones stuff now!!!
