Metabolism is a complicated subject involving complex molecules and interrelated pathways. These pathways are usually taught separately with the result that the student develops a detailed but compartmentalised approach to metabolism and frequently fails to see the overall picture and its physiological significance. Using the At A Glance format, the book takes the student through a complete course in intermediary metabolism in an integrated manner. The same chart is repeated throughout the book with the individual pathway under study highlighted. The text has been updated with new chapters on cholesterol synthesis and the urea cycle, and the chapter on diabetes regulation has been extended. This book will be an invaluable aid to those students requiring a knowledge of metabolism for undergraduate medical, biochemistry, veterinary and nutrition courses, and for scientists and clinicians who need to refresh their knowledge quickly.
