This book does a really good job of giving pictures to describe the text. The subtext underneath the pictures are probably the most important and helpful parts of this book. The textbook give you a lot of information, but they cover the biology and chemistry aspect of each concept. It's a really good textbook if you are taking biochemistry. I am not one to buy the textbooks, I generally avoid it if I can. But I would strongly suggest getting this book, it definitely helps you for the class. It clearly explains all the definitions and has illustrations to go with it. The questions at the end of each chapter are life savers, because ALL the answers are in the back of the book. There is also a glossary in the back to help with definitions. Review: A must have for biochem majors!! - Totally used this book for a biology graduate class!! was a must have!! this book helped me get an A+ in the class!! Shipping was super fast!! would totally recommend!!!

Picture Illustrations Make this Book Amazing
Ok so biochemistry is no joke, I've never read a text book for lecture until I took biochemistry. This book does a really good job of giving pictures to describe the text.

Great book, but the cover tears off easily.
Overall the book was great, but the material used to attach the binding and the cover tears easily. I accidentally dropped the books once and the space between the cover and the binding tore, so if you are in need of purchasing this book for a class, do not be afraid of the used books missing the cover. It is likely to fall off anyway.

Excellent and Interesting!
I didn't get to read it all, and I'm not a huge fan of biochemistry, but this book is an extremely interesting read, even if you aren't taking a class. I get bored by books easy, especially school books. But the approach is very interesting, and the author gives a lot of real life, relatable examples to biochemical principles covered in the book. It's the most excellent textbook on the subject I've ever been forced to read, that's for sure!

Easy to understand
Amazingly well-written Biochemistry text. I'm returning to the subject for a graduate course after a few years off as a student. Easy to understand, relevant illustrations, and helpful examples. My one disappointment is that the answers for end-of-chapter exercises are given but not thoroughly explained - the accompanying guidebook needs to be purchased if you want to know how to solve the problems. Other than that, this resource is exemplary!

Vague on Edition Number
It got a giant hit to the spine on the way here. It's not exactly what I expected. I was expecting the actual textbook, but they gave me a copy and bound it themselves. The pages are thin, and I fear the book will fall apart if I don't keep it safe. It doesn't say anywhere what edition it is. I think it's the 6th edition, but the page numbers don't match the ones I've seen in my library. The pages, themselves, do match. The pictures have no colors.

think of something fun then remove the fun.
It is biochem book for a college level course. How much more do you want? You want colorful pictures? Boom got it! You want a tome of big words about small things? Boom got it! You want a book that encourages complaining about work load? Boom got it! But honestly if you are reading you are already going to buy this book because that one chart on pg 64 is kinda useful.

for a long time now I am trying to study ...
for a long time now I am trying to study this material using YouTube and other academic book; But nothing could really compare to this life saving book!!! If you have self discipline and you are studying this complicated subject on your own, this is the book for you! it incredibly simplifies complex concepts. Thank god for Lehninger and Co. :)

Arrived nice and early and was packaged well to avoid damage. Everything is fine with it - also a really useful book for my biochemistry module at uni.

Biochemie wurde von mir von Anfang an völlig falsch eingeschätzt. Als dann noch ein anderer Prof den restlichen Teil der Vorlesung mit Biophysik Schwerpunkt abhielt hielt ich mich dann auch von der Uni fern. Der erste Versuch der Prüfung war damit ein glatter Reinfall. Also: Nachholen. Ein Buch musste her, die Deutsche Ausgabe etwas in die Jahre gekommen kam grad, sogar noch günstiger als die alte Deutsche Ausgabe, die Sixth Edition des englischen Originals heraus. 2 oder 3 Wochen vor dem Zweiten Prüfungsfenster. Zeitlich reichte das zwar nicht mehr um ein ganzes Buch zu lesen, insbesondere wenn man nebenbei noch ein Praktikum an der Uni hat, aber 200-300 Seiten zu den Klausurthemen überfliegen passten gut in den Zeitplan. Von Nicht bestanden auf 1,7, wäre ich nicht so schusselig gewesen wäre 1,0 auch locker drin gewesen, ich bin schlichtweg begeistert, wie toll diese Buch geschrieben ist und wie verständlich es ist. Ich kaufe mittlerweile nur noch englische Lehrbücher, es sei denn das Original wurde auf Deutsch verfasst. Die Art und Weise, wie an den Stoff heran gegangen wird ist gänzlich anders und, verglichen mit der drögen deutschen Didaktik, brilliant!
