Description
This book presents a clear and precise discussion of the biochemistry of eukaryotic cells, particularly those of mammalian tissues, relates biochemical events at a cellular level to the subsequent physiological processes in the whole animal, and cites examples of abnormal biochemical processes in human disease. The organization and content are tied together to provide students with a complete picture of biochemistry and how it relates to human diseases. This Indian adaptation of the Textbook of Biochemistry with Clinical Correlation, seventh edition, has been developed based on the detailed feedback obtained from long-standing users of the book about how the book should be revised.
