Main description:

This version includes textbook and LaunchPad Access. Derived from the classic text originated by Lubert Stryer and continued by John Tymoczko and Jeremy Berg, Biochemistry: A Short Course focuses on the major topics taught in a one-semester biochemistry course. With its short chapters and relevant examples, it's uniquely effective in helping students see the connections between the biochemistry they're studying and their own lives. This new edition takes into account recent discoveries and advances that have changed how we think about the fundamental concepts in biochemistry and human health.
The pack comes with LaunchPad, containing resources for you and your students; it combines an interactive e-book with high-quality multimedia content, new online case-studies and ready-made assessment options, including LearningCurve adaptive quizzing. Curated pre-built units are easy to assign or adapt with your own material, such as video, animations, simulations, readings, quizzes, discussion groups and more.
