The book is obviously aimed at medics as there are lots of mentions of the relevant diseases and this makes the subject much easier to learn.
This book is easy to follow and understand.
It did highlight really well links to other topics. It definitely has the advantage of keeping the size of the individual books down while still covering a vast amount of information in the series. I also found that it kept my interest going in the topic as I could see the relevance to the overall course.
The case studies are really good – a great way of integrating all the information and keeping students motivated as this is why they are studying biochemistry as well as learning.
I liked this book – it’s much lighter and smaller than Champe and Harvey and as it has lots of integration with other medical/clinical information.
