Review: This textbook is for students of nursing and related healthcare subjects. Here the author, who has been teaching biochemistry for over 30 years, takes a pain-free approach to learning: topics are bite-sized, for easy digestion and all the basic chemistry that you need is provided. There are sections on: the foundations of biochemistry; catabolism; anabolism and control; genes and protein synthesis; and physiological systems and clinical issues. There are self-test questions and answers throughout as well as a companion website with extended MCQs with answers and further explanations.
