Focus on visualization throughout the text and the accompanying resources. From the graphics and art work program to the media-rich resources, the product has been developed to support students' ability to visualize and understand individual and complex biochemistry concepts.
Scientist Profiles' illustrate the wide range of backgrounds, training, and careers that lead to many important contributions in biochemistry so students can see themselves in the diversity of scientists.
Problem-solving techniques and practice are placed throughout the text to support student engagement and effective learning. From self-check questions to worked examples, there are many opportunities to practice.
Achieve is Macmillan Learning's complete online learning system. It houses instructor resources to support teaching and a range of interactive resources and the full ebook to help students succeed in their course. Access to Achieve for instructors is available on this page. Student access to Achieve could be through their institution if the institution has signed a license or as a separate student purchase. The instructor must set up a course for students to benefit from this product.

Chapter content is organized around the themes of evolutionary perspective, clinical applications and physiological relevance, biotechnological and industrial applications and the importance of time and time scales. This ensures relevance and focus for today's biochemistry students.
New content keeps students learning from the latest material with coverage of
molecular recognition, drug discoveries, metabolism and cancer and anticoagulant medicines.
Problem-solving techniques and practice throughout the text and online ensures that students have ample opportunities to hone their knowledge through practice. All end of chapter problems are online so that they are able to be assigned, they include answer specific feedback, hints and fully worked solutions.
