Medical Biochemistry (Paperback)

Salient Features
* Every topic has been written lucidly complimented by illustrative figures for better understanding of the subject.
* Text followed by a set of study questions that are useful for self assessment, examinations and viva voce. This approach of individual topic makes the book to stand out as an extremely useful study material for medical students.
* The entire text is organized into four parts: Cell biology and Chemistry, Metabolism and Nutrition, Molecular Biology and Genetics, Specialized Tissues and Clinical Biochemistry.
* Provides key components of each topic at the beginning.
* Makes a bridge between biochemistry and medicine.
* Summary tables at the end of every topic provide clear concept and make the subject easier to recall and provide rapid review of the subject for examination.
