 Disorganized and hard to read, 2001-07-18
This textbook is the most disorgnized that I have yet had to use. Reading assignments on each simple subject had to come from 3 different chapters in which the same information was repeated, altered slightly, and added to. The result of studying this text was always confusion. The book is full of information, but it's not put into any sort of order, rendering most of it useless, since it can't be found when you need it. This text is utterly unreadable.
 A great book for anyone interested i biotechnology, 1999-03-13
This is one of the first book that I have read that dosen't contain idle chit-chat and contemplations from the author. It's direct and serious about giving a wide view on theory and methods from the world of biochemistry. Thumbs up :-)
Great....but not that great, 2001-08-30
A tolerable reference, especially for cell signalling/transduction, but not the killer text everyone makes it out to be. Having just finished the first year of a microbiology/virology degree, I can honestly say that I have used Lubert Stryer's Biochemistry more frequently, and if you want cell biology, buy a copy of Molecular Biology Of The Cell by Alberts et al. instead. Of course, if you like nice bright pictures, then this is probably for you. Otherwise, the money is better spent elsewhere.
Review of purchase, 2009-12-07
I am happy with what the description was like, and the real state of the book.
Superb, highly readable book, with excellent CDROM, 2001-08-11
I was very impressed with this book. It is logically set out, with many helpful diagrams reinforcing the text. At the same time it is highly readable. I had expected the CDROM to be a bit of a gimmick, but far from it. The CDROM animations accompanying some of the more difficult sections of the book really do help in understanding cell functions, eg the graphical representation of ribosome assembly and protein synthesis from mRNAs, and the animation illustrating the life cycle of mRNAs.
