Now in its sixth edition, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology provides
the perfect balance between detail and conceptual understanding.
Maintaining the much-praised clarity of previous editions, this edition
incorporates both new techniques and pivotal discoveries in a succinct,
easy-to-digest way, using updated figures and diagrams to help explain
complex processes.
Updated content on the control of gene expression reflects the
increasing emphasis on gene regulation in contemporary research, and
incorporates up-to-date discussions of recent developments. Chapter
summaries are logically laid out, forming bulleted lists which provide
students with a consolidation of difficult concepts and progressively
guide them through the specifics whilst keeping the big picture in mind.
Additional 'find out more' sections provide helpful problem-solving
support and the further reading is divided into types to cater for
broader learning needs.
With an integrated approach covering both biochemistry and molecular
biology, complemented by frequent diagrams and clear explanations, and
all presented in a wider cellular context, this text is the perfect
introduction for any student new to the subject.
