"The authors have done an excellent job of explaining the
structural features of the molecules from simplest to most complex,
and then have referred to these structural features in explaining
functional details." "I like the illustrations in this book very
much and the standard format in which they are constructed (certain
symbols mean the same thing in every figure.) Because they are
substantially more sophisticated than the illustrations in the new
edition of Stryer, they are one more reason I have chose to change
the Garrett and Grisham for my general biochemistry course in the
fall."
"Adding new (end-of-chapter) questions is a great idea. Having more
questions that integrate material from previous chapters is
fantastic. In general, I have liked many of the questions in
Garrett and Grisham and assigns me for my students to complete and
turn into me for credit."
"I see that in the new edition the chapter on enzyme mechanisms has
been moved to precede enzyme regulation. This will be a welcome
change."
"In terms of the pedagogical features, I like the use of the
Essential Question(s) and Outline Questions at the beginning of
each chapter as they focus the students and provides a study guide
of learning objectives."
"The strength of Garrett and Grisham is that it serves a real
introductory role and is very accessible. The graphics are usually
very clear and useful."
