I have taught biochemistry to medical students and to
undergraduates and graduate students, at both Temple University
School of Medicine and at Case Western Reserve University, since
1968, so that I have had a great deal of experience in the field
and have a feel for what works well for medical students.

Medical Biochemistry at a Glance would be an excellent book
for USMLE Step 1. In my experience, medical students (and
pre-medical students) would greatly benefit from reading it in
preparation for the exam.

This compares very well with Lippincott's Biochemistry - this
has the right price and approach to compete with Lippincott for a
less expensive and more accessible alternative to the larger text
books that are out there.

I like the way it combines the metabolic pathways and principles in
such a creative fashion, and the metabolism sections are among the
best I have read and the easiest to understand. Metabolism is a
very complicated subject and, in my experience, most teachers of
the subject would really benefit from your text. (Richard W.
Hanson, Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine)
