Summary: Very helpful
Rating: 4

I used Biochemistry for Dummies to study for the ACS Biochemistry final at the University of Mississippi. Before the exam, I border-lined a high "B" and a low "A". Using this book, I was able to study more efficiently in a shorter amount of time. Moore does an excellent job of explaining some of the most complex concepts of biochemistry in layman's terms. I ended up scoring well enough on the exam to score an "A" in my class. This book sums up a biochemistry text book in roughly 300 easy-to-read/skim pages. I didn't even open my text book. It was extremely helpful.

Summary: Burnsie stole my thunder
Rating: 2

Just what I was going to say. I have NO background in biochemistry, but the first thing I noticed in the book was that it had errors on the cheat sheet--the very first page. On the other hand, by messing that up I learned the material (it's correct in a chart later in the book) much better than if it had been right, so I guess I should thank the authors for that. The absence of arrows was beyond the pale. It makes it very difficult for me to trust the rest of the book when it has such obvious errors in it. I gave it two stars because it shows promise as an introductory book...once the egregious bugs are worked out in any subsequent edition.

Summary: Review please?
Rating: 3

Did anyone review this book before it was published? The lack of arrows in the reactions, the labeling of two valines in the "cheat sheet," the structure of one of the valines is the same as the isoleucine, and leucine is left out. The book also mentions that mRNA for translation is directed to the mitochondria...a little confused on that one.

Overall, the book is a good review for those needing to refresh, but full of typos and stupid errors.
