This book covers in detail the mechanisms for how energy is managed in the human body. The basic principles that elucidate the reactivity and physical interactions of matter are addressed and quantified with simple approaches. Three-dimensional representations of molecules are presented throughout the book so molecules can be viewed as unique entities in their shape and function. The book is focused on the molecular mechanisms of cellular processes in the context of human physiological situations such as fasting, feeding and physical exercise, in which metabolic regulation is highlighted. Furthermore the book uses key historical experiments that opened up new concepts in Biochemistry to further illustrate how the human body functions at molecular level, helping students to appreciate how scientific knowledge emerges. This book also: Elucidates the foundations of the molecular events of life Uses key historical experiments that opened up new concepts in Biochemistry to further illustrate how the human body functions at molecular level, helping students to appreciate how scientific knowledge emerges Provides realistic representations of molecules throughout the book Advance Praise for Integrative Human Biochemistry “This textbook provides a modern and integrative perspective of human biochemistry and will be a faithful companion to health science students following curricula in which this discipline is addressed. This textbook will be a most useful tool for the teaching community.” –Joan Guinovart Director of the Institute for Research in Biomedicine, Barcelona, Spain President-elect of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, IUBMB

The seventh edition of this book is a comprehensive guide to biochemistry for medical students. Divided into six sections, the book examines in depth topics relating to chemical basics of life, metabolism, clinical and applied biochemistry, nutrition, molecular biology and hormones. New chapters have been added to this edition and each chapter includes clinical case studies to help students understand clinical relevance. A 274-page free booklet of revision exercises (9789350906378), providing essay questions, short notes, viva voce and multiple choice questions is included to help students in their exam preparation. Free online access to additional clinical cases, key concepts and an image bank is also provided. Key points Fully updated, new edition providing students with comprehensive guide to biochemistry Includes a free booklet of revision exercises and free online access Highly illustrated with nearly 1500 figures, images, tables and illustrations Previous edition published in 2010

Pharmacology for Nurse Anesthesiology provides appropriate chemical, biological, and physical information of the actions, interactions, and reactions of medication, particularly as they apply and impact the practice of nurse anesthesia. Written by CRNAs for CRNAs, the information about various drugs is based on theoretical aspects based in chemistry, biochemistry, biology, and physics/biophysics and practical aspects straight from actual CRNAs who administer and deal with the medications on a case-by-case, daily basis. The perfect resource for both practicing professionals and students in CRNA programs!

The eighth edition of Textbook of Medical Biochemistry provides a concise, comprehensive overview of biochemistry, with a clinical approach to understand disease processes. Beginning with an introduction to cell biology, the book continues with an analysis of biomolecule chemistry, molecular biology and metabolism, as well as chapters on diet and nutrition, biochemistry of cancer and AIDS, and environmental biochemistry. Each chapter includes numerous images, multiple choice and essay-style questions, as well as highlighted text to help students remember the key points.
