As with all the books in the 'At a Glance' series, the aim is to reduce frills to zero, to condense words to the absolute minimum, and to make illustrations the primary tool of communication. The text repeats some of what is in the drawings and adds further basic information. It is not intended to try to replace existing textbooks of biochemistry, but to provide students with a tool with which they can revise rapidly, economically and with confidence. It will also serve as a useful introductory book for those who do not need a great deal of detail about biochemistry. It is therefore aimed at the student who wants essential information available literally at a glance. The scope of the book reflects the standard core curriculum of the pre-clinical medical course in biochemistry. Whilst its closest relationship is to the course at UMDS, the harmonisation of teaching across the principal medical schools and the authors' scrutiny of other courses means that the book will be ideally suited to all medical students. Each chapter will be read by an expert in the relevant field before submission of the final manuscript and the text will be written to take into account the recent publication of 'Metabolism at a Glance' with which there might otherwise be a degree of overlap
