Reviews
“I believe that the book will appeal more to clinicians, both young and experienced and to clinical researchers … . The chapters are of reasonable and correct length and the language used is good and clear. The diagrams too are easy to follow. … It can serve the doctors … . a welcome addition to the ever growing publication list in biomedical sciences.” (Venkatachalam Lakshminarayanan, goodreads.com, April 16, 2019)
“The book's emphasis is on its role and importance in ‘bench‐to‐bedside’ training of healthcare professionals with the hope that this approach will have wide appeal in many disciplines related to pathobiochemistry. … This unique book combines biochemistry with molecular biology and presents various disorders in a case study format. This is indeed a unique strategy to present complex information. I am quite confident that medical students, researchers, clinicians and other healthcare professionals will find this book very useful.” (Omer Iqbal, Doody's Book Reviews, 27 September, 2019)
