Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
This third edition of the Concise Encyclopedia Biochemistry is a revised and expanded translation of the German title Brockhaus ABC Biochimie (Brockhaus, 1981), itself a second edition of the 1976 original. Covering all areas of biochemistry, the 4500+ concise entries range from a paragraph to a few pages. Many new entries on cell and molecular biology have been added, while other entries have been updated and reorganized. The more substantial entries include brief citations to English-language literature. Although the use of initials for the term being described detracts slightly from the readability, the text is nicely augmented by more than 1000 figures, formulas, and tables; figures illustrating reaction pathways are small but clear. Overall, a useful resource for academic libraries.?Teresa Berry, Univ. of Tennessee Lib., Knoxville
