This book covers all the clinical biochemistry needed by undergraduate medical students. It is an Illustrated Colour Text with the subject matter divided into double-page spreads; this makes the information very accessible to the reader. The whole orientation of the book is to concentrate on how clinical biochemistry relates to the care of the patient and to ensure that the medical student understands how to interpret laboratory results. By contrast, the reader is not overburdened by descriptions of laboratory techniques. Spanish version also available, ISBN: 84-8174-523-5

The 3rd Edition of this popular volume in the Illustrated Colour Text series uses a practical, clinical approach to focus on exactly what practitioners need to know to understand, order and interpret laboratory results. All aspects of biochemistry relevant to patient care are covered. Each topic appears on its own two-page spread to make the information easy-to-understand.
