The New Edition of this well-regarded textbook combines basic science and clinical medicine in a concise, easy-to-read format. Fully revised and updated, it reflects the latest information on genetic and molecular biology and integrates even more clinical medicine into the text. At the same time, it retains the dynamic, full-color design that made the first edition such a success-complete with case histories, advanced concept boxes, and color illustrations that clarify complex biochemical concepts. New summary boxes and an expanded self-assessment section make the text even more useful for review and study.
