Average rating of 5/5 Superb., 2000-09-04
What made this book such an enjoyable read, was the fact that no big chunks of prior knowledge were assumed. It was therefore very accessible. A fascinating read enlightening me to the minor changes required in our genetic makeup to cause disease.

Average rating of 5/5 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.
