Fundamentals of Biochemistry 4e

Voet, Voet and Pratt’s Fundamentals of Biochemistry, Fourth Edition addresses the enormous advances in biochemistry, particularly in the areas of structural biology and bioinformatics by providing a solid biochemical foundation that is rooted in chemistry to prepare students for the scientific challenges of the future.

While continuing in its tradition of presenting complete and balanced coverage that is clearly written and relevant to human health and disease, Fundamentals of Biochemistry, Fourth Edition includes new pedagogy and enhanced visuals that provide a pathway for student learning. The authors are careful to present new information in a way that links it to existing content, ever mindful that students assimilate new information only in the proper context. The enriched assessment content in WileyPLUS—a research-based, online environment for effective teaching and learning—offers students the opportunity to gauge their conceptual understanding and receive immediate feedback to address misconceptions.

Review Summary

A well-written biochemistry textbook with advanced knowledge and very interesting biochemical connection boxes. The figures are clear and attractive.

—Sunanta Ratanapo, Faculty of Science, Kasetsart University
Very clear coverage of how one can relate 3-dimensional macromolecular structure to basic chemical principles, such as the double bond character of the peptide bond.

—Gerald Frenkel, Rutgers University
It is a well executed approach. Topics are presented in a hierarchical order.

—Jain Swapan, Bard College
The author has done a fine job in explaining the basic knowledge and conveying updated knowledge.

—Sunanta Ratanapo, Faculty of Science, Kasetsart University
The breadth and depth of what may be one of the most important topics that students should master. It presents this in a very lucid and organized way.
