a good book

I have read this book(1st,2nd and 3rd edits).I think it's a valuable book to university student and postgraduate for reference. Thank prof. Zubay.

A good text on Metabolism but need more contributors

Zubay's biochemistry text book has long stood as one of the best texts in the market. However, this edition is unusual. Instead of written by several expert contributors, this edition is written mostly by Zubay himself. There are just a few chapters by others. This makes this edition becomes less strong and attracts not too many readers. Still, this textbook illustrates well in the metabolisom sections as well as DNA stuff (replication, transcription , translation and regulation.) You can try this book when you have trouble understanding such topics from other texts. I wish the next edition of this text will retain its beauty by having their bright contributors back. (CD provided is good as well)
