Summary Of The Book The book, Biochemistry, is divided into seven separate sections. The first section is labelled Chemical Constituents of Life. Beginning with elements like Carbohydrates and Proteins, the section goes on to explain the different types of cells, talking about the nucleus, then the mitochondria (energy storing sections) and so on. Biochemistry explains the working of enzymes and vitamins clearly. Different kinds of enzymes, their mechanisms and catalysis are covered in this book. Every enzyme has its own effects, as well as the steps to control synthesis. All this is explained exhaustively in this book. Vitamins and how they are absorbed into the body, along with detailed chemical structures are also discussed. The body’s metabolism is also covered in Biochemistry, with emphasis being laid on the metabolism of different components of food, such as amino acids, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. Under the Clinical Biochemistry section, there is comprehensive information regarding hormones, how they function and what the mechanisms are that trigger their production.
