"Harper's Illustrated Biochemistry offers concise, up-to-date, and authoritative coverage of the principles of biochemistry and molecular biology as they relate to medicine. * Revised for clarity, with new streamlined organization, new figures, and new online image collection * Reflects major advances in biochemistry that are important to medicine * Includes new chapters on amino acids and peptides, primary structure of proteins, and the Human Genome Project * Presents new and expanded coverage of the mechanisms of action of enzymes, receptors involved in lipoprotein metabolism and reverse cholesterol transport, RNA synthesis, gene regulation, molecular mechanisms of hormone action, protein life cycle, and pharmacogenomics * Provides clinical correlations and chapter summaries * Features more than 500 clear, descriptive illustrations ### Review ""Originally published in 1939, this enduring reference/text continues with its mission to introduce biochemistry concepts to medical and health sciences students in concise text supported with graphs, charts, and diagrams. Updating the 2003 26th edition (which was drastically revised to make it shorter), the 28th includes substantial revisions as well as new coverage of bioinformatics and computational biology. Topics are each treated in about 10 pages and are presented under the themes of: structures and functions of proteins and enzymes; bioenergetics and the metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids; metabolism of proteins and amino acids; structure, function and replication of informational macromolecules; biochemistry of extracellular and intracellular communication; and special topics (e.g. nutrition, digestion and absorption, muscle and the cytoskeleton). The authors introduce each concept with discussion of its biomedical importance."" (*Sci-Tech Book News* 2006-09-01) ### From the Back Cover Currently the most up-to-date book on the market, Harper's Biochemistry, 25/e, gives you the biochemistry background you need to succeed in medical school.
