Basic Concepts in Biochemistry A Student's Survival Guide 2nd ed.is a book that offers help in two different ways—help in understanding the concepts of biochemistry and help in organizing your attack on the subject and minimizing the subject’s attack on you.This book presents what are often viewed as the more difficult concepts in an introductory biochemistry course and describes them in enough detail and in simple enough language to make them understand- able. In Basic Concepts in Biochemistry, central concepts are developed in a stepwise fashion. The simplest concepts provide a review of what might have been forgotten, and the more complex concepts present what might not have been realized. The major topics and things to remember are set off in boxes so that if you already know everything in the box, you can skip the rest of the section.
