We teach a mixed class, chemistry, biology and pre-med majors. This book covers introductory topics that the chemists find easy but biology majors need to review (statistics, Beer's Law, etc.) Later, it covers molecular biology techniques that biologists are familiar with but chemistry majors are not! it is the best for a mixed class. It is clear and gives enough background that students can read it on their own and come prepared for lab....I have found no mistakes in the text.
Extensive background contents that will surely help students of non-Biochem major to catch up with the major ones. Good practice problems. Though I would highly suggest reading the book before going to the lab. A better organization of which chapter comes first also helps the students navigate around better as well. Four stars because of the way each chapter was organized in a somewhat random order that caused troubles to both the professors and the students to follow.
This text is very bare. Not enough detail and no answers for problems in book to work with. If you choose this for students, please only use it as a workbook or lab manual and NOT a main text. Provide solutions to practice problems. This is not nearly enough for use as a main text book (which is what my instructor did!!).
This Biochemistry manual offers incredible details and explanations, so the reader is not lost during an experiment. It also provides step-by-step instructions on how to perform the experiments, as well as a results sections where one may write in the data tables provided.
Experiments explained well and are usefull for real life work. For me it was a bit hard to understand sometimes.
No pages were missing, and the amount of writing was not glaringly excessive. I got a fairly good deal on it so it served its purpose.
The answers to the questions in each section were written in. Kind of takes away from the practice questions for me. Not cool
This wasn't my favorite textbook ever, but it got the job done. We had to use it in my BCHM class at Purdue. The book does a good job of explaining the concepts, but seems really old and is kind of dry. But what are you to expect with biochemistry?
