About the Book

Now in its second edition, Basic Medical Biochemistry continues to provide a unique clinically based approach to the subject that is perfect for medical students. The authors use patient vignettes throughout the book to emphasize the importance of biochemistry to medicine, delivering a text that is specifically oriented toward clinical application and understanding. Patients have unique and humorous names that serve as mnemonics to help students remember the vignettes. Facts and pathways are also emphasized, showing how the underlying biochemistry is related to the body's overall physiologic functions. The result is a clear, comprehensive, and easy-to-read text that helps medical students understand the all-important role the patient plays in the study of biochemistry. Other features and highlights include: A new back-of-book CD offers 9 animations on biochemical topics (oxidative phosphorylation, DNA replication, DNA mutation, protein synthesis, PCR, TCA cycle) as well as patient "files, disease links, and over 200 additional review questions not found in the book. A well-organised icon system quickly guides you to the information you need. Marginal notes provide brief clinical correlations, short questions and answers, and interesting asides. Each chapter ends with "Biochemical Comments and "Clinical Comments ; both sections summarize the key biochemical and clinical concepts presented in the chapter. USMLE-style questions at the end of each chapter help students review for course or board exams. Two-colour art program includes illustrations of chemical structures and biochemical pathways as well as conceptual diagrams. A new section on tissue metabolism has been added that summarizes common clinical problems such as liver disease and alcoholism. Lecturers - Click here to order an Inspection Copy of this title.
