  • Accessible writing style and carefully gauged level of detail make the text ideal for students encountering the subject for the first time
  • Its broad coverage takes readers from the basic building blocks of life right through to metabolism, gene regulation, cell signalling and the immune system
  • Clear sub headings and extensive cross referencing make the text easy to navigate and allow chapters to be read in any order
  • The user-friendly design and layout is complemented by frequent diagrams to illustrate important concepts

New to this Edition:

  • The opening section has been restructured to enhance understanding of core introductory principles, with greater coverage of basic concepts such as chemical bonding and more worked examples of numerical problems
  • Updated content on manipulating DNA and genes, incorporating gene editing and other recent developments in the field
  • Entirely updated figures and diagrams are easier to interpret and help explain complex processes
  • Summary sections are redesigned to form bulleted lists, providing a consolidation of difficult concepts
  • End of chapter questions and additional reading have been re-worked to include more guidance for students and lecturers about their use
  • An extended selection of online resources with additional Multiple Choice Questions for each chapter
    
Now in its sixth edition, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology provides the perfect balance between detail and conceptual understanding. Maintaining the much-praised clarity of previous editions, this edition incorporates both new techniques and pivotal discoveries in a succinct, easy-to-digest way, using updated figures and diagrams to help explain complex processes.
   
Updated content on the manipulation of DNA and genes reflects the rapid introduction of new methods in contemporary research, and incorporates up-to-date discussions of recent developments such as gene editing. Chapter summaries are logically laid out, forming bulleted lists which provide students with a consolidation of difficult concepts and progressively guide them through the specifics whilst keeping the big picture in mind. Additional 'find out more' sections provide helpful problem-solving support and the further reading is divided into types to cater for broader learning needs.
   
With an integrated approach covering both biochemistry and molecular biology, complemented by frequent diagrams and clear explanations, and all presented in a wider cellular context, this text is the perfect introduction for any student new to the subject.
