(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Biochemistry, Fourth Edition (Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews Series) (Paperback)

This is a good book. It explains what happens when a certain pathway is malfunctioning. However, I wish that it was a little more clear in explaining certain pathways. (It assumes you really know biochemistry).

3.0 out of 5 stars Great book for biochem not so much for the boards, May 10, 2008

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Biochemistry, Fourth Edition (Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews Series) (Paperback)

For those who like pictures along with their text, this book is great. Even though biochemistry is a detailed subject this book is not too weighed down in details and will allow you to understand the material fairly well. However, I stared to turn to it more as a reference than a main source. This may be because I thought that it was not calibrated appropriately for the usmle. It seems to be written more for a biochemistry class. It lacks in clinical correlations, the ability to be quickly reviewed, and there are precious few questions to get down the material at the end of each chapter. One feature that was nice, however, was a summary section at the end of each chapter. It is definitely not a comprehensive summary, but it does allow a quick summary of good things to know. All in all, a good book to have with you, but not the best source for the boards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than "basic", November 25, 2008

(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Biochemistry, Fourth Edition (Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews Series) (Paperback)

This was not the recommended text for my first year biochem class......however, when I could not make heads nor tails of the one that WAS recommended, I saw this one and it saved my life. Not only does it explain key concepts, it does so in a manner that pieces all biochemical pathways together - and with PICS!!! What more can you ask for?!?!
