Product Description

Review
"The new edition of Clinical Biochemistry covers all aspects of the subject needed by medical students. Great layout with flow charts, clinical 'boxes', summary points, case histories and clinical photographs. This book successfully relates clinical biochemistry to the care of the patient. Covers clinical biochemistry from the point of view of the clinician using the diagnostic service and doesn't overburden with description of laboratory techniques. Useful not only through medical school but also to improve understanding of biochemistry at more advanced levels for clinical practice."
"3rd Year Medical Student," Edinburgh University, September 2004.
This book is very good as an overview to the subject of clinical biochemistry, and it is clear, non-waffly and easy to read, with good colourful diagrams.
"MAD magazine, the official journal of Barts and and The London Students' Association"

Product Description
The new edition of Clinical Biochemistry covers all aspects of the subject needed by medical students .It is a volume in the Illustrated Colour Text series, with the subject matter divided into double-page spreads; this makes the information very accessible to the reader. Full use is made of

* Flow charts and other graphics
* Clinical 'boxes'
* Summary points
* Case histories
* Clinical photographs

The whole orientation of the book is to concentrate on how clinical biochemistry relates to the care of the patient and to ensure that the medical student understands how to interpret laboratory results. By contrast, the reader is not overburdened by descriptions of laboratory techniques

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent resource, 18 Nov 2007
I'm not a big one for reading things in consecuetive order, as I tend to get distracted, but this book answered all my questions as I asked them. Really clearly written with good example cases to test your knowledge on. Excellent diagrams. I wish I had found it earlier!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for degree level, 28 April 2009
By S. Tillotson (Leeds, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I used this for my clinical biochem and pathology modules at uni - explains the tests, techniques, reference ranges and also goes into genetics of disease. Brilliant basically - really easy to understand and a lot of information included - also pretty thin so nice and light for dragging around lectures!

This book has proved useful sometimes, but doesn't go into as much depth as i would have hoped about some aspects of biochemistry. It is more of an overveiw,
