5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent improvement from the first edition, October 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Biochemistry (Saunders golden sunburst series) (Hardcover)

I have Biochemistry texts by Garrett and Grisham in both editions. First,I found the 1st edition a very bad text since the fiugures and language presented in the text were extremely vague and unclear. However, the 2nd edition seems to be much better than the first version. The context is clear, organization great, pictures are perfect. The idea that authors combine two books in one (i.e biochemistry and Cell biology approach) is nice, making this book become one of the good texts to have on the shelf. I am sure that anyone who wants to learn more about biochemistry, this book can be a good tool.

4.0 out of 5 stars Clear,concise biochemistry topics, July 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Biochemistry (Saunders golden sunburst series) (Hardcover)

I am a first year graduate student and I just started using this book. I find it very easy to understand and very helpful as a reference. If you need a break from Stryer and/or Voet and Voet, this is your book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Broad, Understandable, well-printed--->Good textbook, May 2, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Biochemistry (Saunders golden sunburst series) (Hardcover)

The book covers a broad range in biochemistry and is written to the appropriate depth which makes it suitable for year one or year two(for some topics) students. Some chapters are particularly well written, like TCA cycle, glycolysis and enzyme kinetics. And the book is well printed, as can be easily seen. I wonder where we can obtain the password for the webpage from our local distributors in Singapore.
