Reviews"Biochemistry: Essential Concepts fills an important void in the repertoire of biochemistry textbooks. As a supplement it is perfect!"--Ales Vancura, St. John's University"An excellent supplement to traditional one-semester biochemistry texts. It distills the essential elements of biochemistry into short segments, allowing students to get the major points without getting bogged down."--Christine Hrycyna, Purdue University"I am certain that my students will benefit greatly from having Biochemistry: Essential Concepts as a study guide."--S. Madhavan, University of Nebraska Lincoln

SynopsisOne-semester biochemistry courses are notorious for overwhelming students with the magnitude of material covered in their texts and lectures. Biochemistry: Essential Concepts distills the basic ideas covered in a one-semester course without the extraneous details that burden most texts.Authors Charles Hardin and James Knopp demonstrate the core concepts of biochemistry - including cell biology, amino acids, metabolism, and DNA - in a variety of real-world contexts. With the last forty percent of the text devoted to review questions and practice tests, Biochemistry: Essential Concepts equips students for success in the one-semester biochemistry course and prepares them for their future studies and careers., Biochemical Bottom Lines presents the basic concepts covered in one-semester biochemistry courses, without all of the extraneous details found in most texts. It is a concise and manageable presentation of the basic biochemical principles together with problem-solving and review tools that keeps students focused on the essential concepts they need to learn. In the one-semester biochemistry course, most students feel overwhelmed by the amount of material covered in lectures and the task of identifying exactly what they should take with them upon completion of the course; therefore, Hardin's Biochemical Bottom Lines extracts and presents the essential core concepts imbedded in a typical biochemistry textbook and explains them in a variety of contexts, so students are more likely to gain a conceptual understanding of the processes of biochemistry. Biochemical Bottom Lines serves as an excellent background for those students that go on to take more advanced or more in-depth biochemistry courses. To further reinforce core concepts, the last 40% of the book is devoted to a set of review questions and practice tests.The text is divided into 30 chapters and designed to be assigned as supplement to the main text in the course, however it can be used as a stand alone text., One-semester biochemistry courses are notorious for overwhelming students with the magnitude of material covered in their texts and lectures.
