It’s alive! It’s alive! (Thanks to biochemistry, that is.)

Biochemistry is the science of the chemical processes that allow for... well... life. If it moves, breathes, eats, or sleeps, biochemistry can probably explain how. So, it stands to reason that the fundamentals of biochemistry can get a little complicated.

It simplifies and clarifies the subject with easy-to-follow diagrams and real-world examples. You’ll also get:

  • Explorations of cell biology, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and other fundamental building blocks of life
