DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis clear and lucid book helps towards an understanding of the principles of enzymology, a subject with a somewhat undeserved reputation for being difficult. The subject is explained most carefully, without rushing or cutting corners, in a coverage which is balanced, readable and comprehensive, accounting for both theory and applications. The book will act as a bridge for those wishing to progress to more advanced and specialised areas. New material has been added since publication of the first edition, revealing advances made since 1980, including NMR spectroscopy, HPLC, immunoassay, genetic engineering and structures of oligomeric enzymes. Fresh and stimulating problems have been devised, diagrams redrawn and sections on obsolete techniques removed to make way for the new material. The approach taken throughout encourages, where appropriate, correct answers to problems, thereby reinforcing the reader's understanding of enzymology by facing real-life difficulties.
