Preface to the Fourth Edition

This book Biochemistry has undoubtedly become one of the most preferred text books (in India and many other countries) by the students as well as teachers in medical, biological and other allied sciences. It is certainly a book of choice and a true companion to all learning biochemistry, hence appropriately regarded by many as Bible of Biochemistry. This book has undergone three editions, several reprints, and revised reprints in a span of 13 years.

The advances in biochemistry are evergrowing due to exponential growth of the subject. Further, the critical comments, frank opinions and constructive suggestions by teachers and students need to be seriously considered. All this necessitates frequent revision of the book.

In this fourth edition, a thorough revision and update of each chapter with latest advances has been done. The main emphasis of this edition is an improved orientation and treatment of human biochemistry in health and disease. A wide variety of case studies with relevant biochemical profiles (along with diagnosis and discussion) are newly added as an appendix. In addition, several newer aspects of biochemistry are covered in this edition, some of them are listed below.

Triacylgylcerol/fatty acid cycle
