3.0 out of 5 stars
A struggling beginner, October 23, 2005
This review is from: The Absolute, Ultimate Guide to Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry, 4th Edition: Study Guide and Solutions Manual (Paperback)
This book is a great needed idea. If you are using the accompanying text in your class this is a must have. BUT the authors decided in their wisdom to put questions in each section that are for discussion (3-4 pages for each chapter).Great right? They don't have any answers for the discussion questions! The given reason is that it will make you, the student, a better biochemist. Should you find study groups a waste of time (I do), then you read the text several times trying to find the right answer and are uncertain if you ever found it. On a positive note there are crossword puzzles and tests at each chapter that do have answers. They also included complete answers to the problems in the text. I am using the discussion questions as a map to read the text and it matches perfectly. If you buy this book by the text too as this is not a stand alone book.

not what i thought, February 13, 2008
This review is from: The Absolute, Ultimate Guide to Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry, 4th Edition: Study Guide and Solutions Manual (Paperback)
i thought this book would be explained solutions for the problems found in the actual textbook. its actually just a review book relating to each chapter, with new problems/ solutions/ quizzes etc. still useful, but not as correlated to the textbook as i had thought.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Should be required for about 75% of us, November 9, 2006
This review is from: The Absolute, Ultimate Guide to Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry, 4th Edition: Study Guide and Solutions Manual (Paperback)
A solution manual is a great thing to have in an undergraduate biochem class. All of the solutions are in the back section. The front of the book goes through each chapter and focuses on what the authors feel is most important. There are even suggested topics for discussion with your study group.
