《Fundamentals of Biochemistry》6th.Multicolour Illustrative Edition
Biochemistry is a new branch of science which aims at
answering, in chemical language, questions such as ‘What
is the life made of ?’ and ‘How does it work ?’ Whereas
the eye works at the gross level of visible objects, the microscope
reaches down to the cellular level, exposing details of the various
cell organelles, including nuclei and other particles.
Biochemistry, however, works at a still finer level that cannot be
accessed by the ultra-modern optical or phase-contrast
microscopes. In other words, it operates at a molecular level
and thus brings to light the hidden secrets of life. The rapid
development and enormous expansion of every phase of
biochemistry has not only markedly enriched our knowledge
about the nature of life but has also made biochemistry the
very language of life itself.
Realising the paramount importance of this discipline of
science, degree courses in biochemistry are now offered in a
good number of colleges and universities. But the students
offering this subject at undergraduate level come as raw hand,
as biochemistry is not taught to them at the school level. It is, in
fact, to meet the requirements of such students that this book
has been written. Besides, the book may also serve an useful
purpose for higher studies.
The book contains the basic concept of biochemistry
written in a manner suited to the broad spectrum of the college
students. The matter has been lucidly presented, orderly
arranged and profusely illustrated. References have been
included at the end of each chapter in order to guide the
reader to the classical and current literature. A few appendices
are given at the end. These may, however, prove useful to the
reader. Some illustrations have been adapted from standard
texts, journals and research papers. The sources of all such figures
have been duly acknowledged in their legends. The author feels
greatly beholden to their authors and publishers.
