Thomas M. Devlin's "Textbook of Biochemistry with Clinical Correlations" presents the biochemistry of mammalian cells, relates events at a cellular level to the subsequent physiological processes in the whole animal, and cites examples of human diseases derived from aberrant biochemical processes. The organization and content are tied together to provide students with the complete picture of biochemistry and how it relates to humans. Loaded with new material and chapters and brimming with detailed, full-color illustrations that clearly explain associated concepts, this sixth edition is an indispensable tool for students and professionals in the medical or health sciences. The key features of the Sixth Edition include: over 250 Clinical Correlations highlighting the significance of the biochemistry to clinical conditions and diseases; MCAT-Style Questions with annotated answers in every chapter - in a format similar to that used by the National Board of Medical Examiners; more than 1,200 high-quality, full-color illustrations; a concise appendix reviewing important Organic Chemistry Concepts.
It also features: fully updated with a significant revision of all chapters and major topics; two new chapters: Fundamentals of Signal Transduction and Cell Cycle, Programmed Cell Death, and Cancer; a Glossary that explains important biochemical terms; and new sections on the Basal Lamina Protein Complex and Molecular Motors.
Thomas M. Devlin, Ph.D. - Professor Emeritus, Drexel University School of Medicine.
