Marks' Basic Medical Biochemistry: A Clinical Approach
A best-selling core textbook for medical students
taking medical biochemistry, Marks' Basic Medical Biochemistry links
biochemical concepts to physiology and pathophysiology, using
hypothetical patient vignettes to illustrate core concepts. Completely
updated to include full-color art, expanded clinical notes, and
bulleted summaries at the end of each chapter, the revised Third
Edition helps medical students understand the importance of the
patient and bridges the gap between biochemistry, physiology, and
clinical care.

Biochemistry
This is a superb book to understand the excitement
of biochemistry and to understand its relevance to human health.
Stryer's book presents biochemistry in a completely different manner.
Unlike traditional textbooks, it presents each chapter giving a
representative molecule or system for explanation and characterization
of the material in that chapter. For example, haemoglobin and
myoglobin are illustrated for explaining the three dimensional
structure of proteins, lysozyme and chymotrypsin for explaining enzyme
action, and a host of others. Each example is critically chosen,
considering its role and function in life and metabolism. This makes
the matter very interesting and practical. In parallel with these
examples are descriptions of diseases and biochemical disorders as
well as historical perspectives. Key points are italicized and help
the reader to concisely and quickly summarise the material. The last
part, molecular physiology, gives a lucid exposition of the
fundamental biochemical processes in living organisms. In fact, the
whole point of view in the book is a physiological one and the book
does an outstanding job of presenting biochemistry in the context of
human health and medicine. The book also has a generous dose of
drawings of proteins, molecules and nucleic acids which makes it easy
to visualize the material presented. The book is unlike Lehninger,
which is essentially a traditional textbook. Even though Lehninger is
great as an introductory book, Stryer is, in my opinion, the book to
read if you want to learn biochemistry as a discipline which should be
viewed as an exciting excursion into human metabolism and life.
