Good for more advanced level

You need to have a good understanding of Biochemistry to follow along with this book. It does not provide a lot of basic information.

Quality and content of the book.

Generally,the book is excellent and the information is condensed in a simple language which can be understood easily. I also liked the proteins cartoons, the protein data bank number,fantastic! In additions, the book have links,words or terms defination and further references which proves to be helpful.

To the point introduction

It is great! Concise, to the point, with good illustrations, teaches you the essentials of protein structure and function in little time.
