Excellent Book to start Biochemistry!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Mathew's Biochemistry is an excellent book to start this difficult subject! The easy diagrams and interesting notes just keeps you wanting to learn more...Read, read and read. If only it could have a more clinical focus it would be 100% perfect. Combine it with "Harper's Biochemistry" and you will soon run A+ on scores! To die for!
great book!

I am a biochemistry major at the university of the philippines. i have several biochem books on my shelf and i just recently purchased a copy of the 2000 edition (i also have the 2nd ed). the book just keeps getting better. the book really helps a lot especially when the class lecture corresponds with how the book presents the subject matter. as a biochem major, i'd say this is a pretty good way to present biochem. it makes it seem easy and fun to read. you look at the pictures and read the caption and you learn the idea in a flash.
One of the best biochemistry book

I have not seen the 2000 edition yet, but the previous edition is very elegantly written. Compare with some other biochemistry text, this book provides another view into biochemistry. Almost (if not all) all the chapters have a special topic after the chapter text, showing you how we can turn the dry text into useful experimental tools for solving life's problem, scientifically. These special topics also give us a view into the physical chemistry world, which has become more and more important at the time.
Easy to understand, clear and well organized

Biochemistry by Mathews and van Holde is one of the best texts for any biochemist's need. The authors discuss almost all of the subjects any biochemistry class ever comes across. The language presented throughout the text is simple, yet cover the fundamental concepts nicely. The questions and answers given at the end of each chapter are well prepared and extremely useful for test preparation. This text is suitable for both medical and pure science students. I would give two thumbs up for Dr. Mathews and van Holde and cannot wait to see the new edition coming up.
Excellent Book

This book is unmatched in it's quality for introductory biochemistry. The detailed diagrams and explainations are easy to grasp and well put together. I would strongly recommend this book for any biochemists.
