I've recently moved from Carson, CA to pakistan. After finishing high school and some college, i've started my first year of medschool. The trouble with school here is that most of the teachers and local textbook authors promote rote memorization of facts instead of conceptual understanding i've come to rely on in the past 8yrs.
I was wondering, in ur experience, what's the best biochem book i should use to learn medical biochemistry as it is taught in the states. I already use Lippincott's Illustrated Review: it's a great book, but the trouble is that it's a "review" book. Which "TEXTBOOK" (like gyton and hall for physio...or gray's anat ) would u recommend to someone who hasn't taken organic chem, i.e.,ME!
Thanx for ur help; feedback from former/current medstudents will be most appreciated, nevertheless, this question is open to anyone who's taken biochem(and didn't fail it...lol) . Please remember, i'm looking for a MEDICAL biochem book...not a general biochem book.
Thanx = D
