"Medical Biochemistry: Pearls of Wisdom is a collection of rapid-fire questions and answers to help students and physicians prepare for board and recertification exams and reviews, and for students taking advanced undergrad and graduate biochemistry courses. It consists of "pearls" - succinct pieces of knowledge in a question and answer format. Designed to maximize test scores, Medical Biochemistry: Pearls of Wisdom allows students to retain even the most complex concepts with ease." "This is an interactive text, set up in a format that encourages active learning. Unlike multiple-choice formats, this study aid requires the students to provide the answer on their own. Questions are followed by answers consisting of additional information to enhance learning. Emphasis has been placed on evoking details and key facts that are easily overlooked, but which inevitably appear on certification exams."--BOOK JACKET.
