4.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful, 17 April 2009
By Smartypants (Wales UK) - See all my reviews
This book has proved very helpful in my nutritional studies. It has enough detail to prove very useful and informative but is not overly technical. It is written in a manner that essentially assumes you no nothing about the subject. The structure of the book allows the reader to dip in and out where necessary, but the nature of biochemistry requires that some topics are learned in order, therefore, it follows that some reading in order is required.

Would recommend it to anyone studying a subject that requires a little more understanding of biochemistry than they currently have.
