text books are not meant to be easy
Well I thought that this was a very good text book. Yes it has few diagrams and LOTS of information, but it is meant as a senior university level plant biochem text, not a pretty-pretty introduction to first year biology.

This review is from: Plant Biochemistry (Hardcover)
Well I thought that this was a very good text book. Yes it has few diagrams and LOTS of information, but it is meant as a senior university level plant biochem text, not a pretty-pretty introduction to first year biology. It makes you think about the topics and seek out other references, which is what you need to do in the real world of scientific research. There are absolutely loads of references to, at the time, recent research papers. I don't think the book was ever meant for the Discovery Channel, but rather to be a useful reference for working plant biochemists. It is a complicated, often confusing, contradicatory subject, with no definte "Text Book" answers. It is very heavy for a backpack though.
