"As will be seen, there is not much missing here. I thought that the sections were well balanced, with rarely too much or too little on a given topic...This is a text to be welcomed by both teachers and students." BIOCHEMISTRY & MOLECULAR BIOLOGY EDUCATION (on the first edition) The new edition of this successful textbook explains the basic principles behind the key techniques currently used in the modern biochemical laboratory in a way that is comprehensive and approachable for students who are not physical chemists. It bridges the gap between general biochemistry textbooks and the more specialist books covering individual techniques. The second edition maintains the strengths of the first and includes the following specific changes: * Incorporates much more material on proteomics * Includes more information on small-scale physical methods and fourier transform mass spectrometry * Covers the latest developments in biological NMR * Presents a revised chapter on chromatography and an updated bibliography * Provides case studies to help readers appreciate the multi-disciplinary nature of physical biochemistry
