Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry: Fourth edition

Product Information

Interactive Metabolic Map and Animated Mechanism Videos, problem-solving videos, and case studies are integrated into Lecture Slides and available as stand-alone resources A detailed gradebook with insights for just-in-time teaching and reporting on student and full class achievement by learning objective. Biochemistry: Concepts and Connections (2nd Edition) By Dean R. Appling, Spencer J. Anthony-Cahill and Christopher K. Mathews The Lehninger 8e digital program builds on the focus on principles, with resources ideal for in-person lecture-based to fully online courses. There are several comprehensive biochemistry texts available. The fourth edition of Lehninger draws on a successful history initiated with the first edition which was a landmark text in its time. The 28 chapters follow an expected and logical progression from discussion of the fundamental molecules involved in cellular events through metabolism to the latest aspects of molecular biology. Illustrations are well done and frequent. Each chapter is accompanied by a short but useful bibliography and a set of problems. Problem answers are at the end, together with a detailed glossary and a thorough index. In an attempt to capture as broad a student audience as possible, discussions of both photosynthesis and metabolic diseases are offered. Thus, the material can be used in undergraduate/graduate courses as well as in medical school. As with other representatives of this text style, the typical student is likely to have some difficulty assigning relative importance to a given item considering the overall depth of coverage of topics. Nevertheless, careful reading with some guidance will be rewarding for most scholars and the book will serve as companion text for the usual biochemistry course. The bibliography is not as complete as some, but will provide pointers to additional material. A useful, albeit formidable (for the student) contribution.
