Editorial Reviews for Metabolism at a Glance (At a Glance)
|
|
Metabolism at a Glance is a complete review course of metabolism in health and disease and offers a unique approach to the study of this difficult discipline. Metabolism is a complicated subject involving complex molecules and interrelated pathways. These metabolic pathways are usually taught separately with the result that the student develops a detailed but compartmentalised approach to metabolism and frequently fails to see the overall picture and its physiological significance. Using the at a Glance format, the book takes the student through a complete course in intermediary metabolism in an integrated manner. The same chart is repeated throughout the book with the individual pathway under study highlighted. The book is an ideal text for introductory biochemistry courses and has established itself as an enormously popular book amongst lecturers and students alike. This third edition is fully updated and includes five new chapters to mirror those topics currently taught at undergraduate level: 1. Metabolic Channelling 2. Glucose homeostasis and Reye's Disease 3. Pentose phosphate pathway and the prodcution of NADPH 4. Tryptophan metabolism in health and disease 5. Tyrosine metabolism in health and disease

Summary: great view of the big picture
Comment: Metabolism at a Glance helped me in an advanced metabolism class: it shows all the inter-relationships between the different metabolic pathways, and overall is very complete. I purchased it on recommendation by one of my professors. I imagine that this book will be helpful to anyone in fields such as nutrition, exercise physiology, biochemistry, and at the very least is a good companion to any graduate level biochemistry/physiology textbook or class. The text can be small despite the oversized nature of the book, but then again, there's not much that can be done to resolve that given the number of enzymes, substrates, etc. involved in these pathways. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Is this good one to study biochemical pathway?
Comment: Actually, to memorize whole pathways of metabolisms is time-consuming work and easily worn out. So sometimes we think something good material connected the entire pathways should be needed. First of all, this book is hard to carry in your bag because this is over-sized shape, although the weight is light. Something to be desired is horrible pathways should be more inter-connected each other. Regulations on each pathway should be more added.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent, Concise, and Thorough!
Comment: This large format book reveiws basic metabolism in an easy to understand manner. Specific segments of the metabolic pathway are summarized within two pages. Each face-page gives an overview of the entire metabolic pathway, with an outline of the specific topic discussed within that section. Far easier to comprehend than the metabolic pathways as described in those well known Biochemistry tomes, where the entire metabolic pathway is spread over 100 or so pages!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Superb diagrams; required reading for all biochem students
Comment: The above is adequate. I'm a biochemistry student and have no time for writing reviews :)
Customer Rating:
Summary: Metabolic pathways??? - Brilliant!
Comment: As a biochemistry student I found this book to be the perfect partner to Albert Lehninger's "Principles of Biochemistry". An excellent overall picture of how each pathway interacts with other metabolic components.
