2.		Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Biochemistry, North American Edition (Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews Series) from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Price: $52.95 Customer Review: I started using this book to prepare for Step 1 of the boards, but I didn't care for it. I found all the colors too distracting and didn't find the explanations terribly helpful either. The one time I learned biochemistry best was using Mark's Basic Medical Biochemistry a Clinical Approach Second... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		Grant's Dissector from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Price: $6.37 Customer Review: I love that it gives page references to five different atlases including Grant's Atlas, Color Atlas of Anatomy and Netter's Atlas of Human Anatomny!	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Molecular Biology of the Cell from Other Price: $86.77 Customer Review: Over the course of more than a decade of biology/engineering/medical degrees, this is the single best textbook I've read.

5.		ACSM's Resource Manual for Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription (Books) from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Price: $3.14 Customer Review: As a resource manual for passing the ACSM's HFS Certification Exam it leaves a lot to be desired. For a 3rd edition it is painfully full of typo errors which include wrong answers for the review tests which makes you doubt your knowledge. In addition it only covers about 1/2 of what's on the exam.... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

8.		The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $10.99 Customer Review: I love the idea of the singularity. I think Ray Kurzweil is a god among men. His enthusiasm and passion make me want to believe. But it may take my entire life to finish reading this book. It's dense and not very beginner-friendly for those of us who want to learn more about the topic. Don't let... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

13.		The Double Helix: A Personal Account of the Discovery of the Structure of DNA from Signet Price: $13.78 Customer Review: This short read is a highly entertaining account of the discovery of the structure of DNA. The cast of scientists are portrayed in a seemingly candid manner and the pace and setbacks of the story make this a true page-turner.

14.		Demon in the Freezer from Random House Inc (T) Price: $7.06 Customer Review: You have to read this book, if you want to be in the know as to what is going on and where it is going on this book is a must read.

15.		Fluids and Electrolytes Made Incredibly Easy! (Incredibly Easy! Series) from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Price: $30.99 Customer Review: I had trouble with understanding fluids and electrolytes in my class lecture, so I purchased this book.

16.		Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry & Absolute Ultimate Guide ( two VOL. set ) from W. H. Freeman Price: $190.50 Customer Review: Extraordinarily helpful.

17.		Chemistry: An Introduction to General, Organic, & Biological Chemistry (10th Edition) from Prentice Hall Price: $110.00 Customer Review: I've not read every chemistry book out there so I'm no expert on how this book stacks up against the rest, but as someone who has had the misfortune to have to read this book and learn the material, I'm incredibly disappointed in the quality of the teaching in this book. The author has managed to... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


18.		Lights Out: Sleep, Sugar, and Survival from Atria Price: $8.14 Customer Review: I came across this book while looking for books about circadian rhythms and the body clock. I found an excerpt of this book and decided to read it to see what the book is like. My conclusion is that it's scary. While I get the idea (sugar is bad for us, too much light after dark affects our sleep... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


19.	[no image]	Fundamentals of General, Organic and Biological Chemistry from Prentice Hall Price: $35.00 Customer Review: Shipping was a bit slow, the book is in good condition with a bent in corners, but it is fine for me.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

21.		Foye's Principles of Medicinal Chemistry (Lemke, Foye's Principles of Medicinal Chemistry) from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Price: $69.40 Customer Review: I haven't actually used this book yet (so far the professor has given us excellent notes), but it is full of information that I'll probably use when I need to review everything. Very comprehensive for reviewing a specific topic, but a bit boring to just read.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


22.		Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion (Geha, Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion) from Garland Science Price: $42.00 Customer Review: It was in excellent condition even with the few underlined sections or highlighted parts, in my opinion those only make text books more valuable.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


23.		BRS Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Fourth Edition (Board Review Series) from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Price: $7.99 Customer Review: For a "Board Review" book, you need something that is accurate and condensed. This is not accurate, and while the book is short I wouldn't call it condensed - it's just short. Looks like plenty of other reviewers have already mentioned the errors, so I won't go into detail on that. However, when I... more info	Customer Rating: 2.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


24.		Fundamentals of Biochemistry: Life at the Molecular Level from Wiley Price: $129.99 Customer Review: This book is not an easy read, perhaps because of the difficult nature of the subject material. It is useful and full of good information. It does clearly explain difficult subjects. Bonus: It has the answers to the practice questions in the back of the book. (All of them, not just the odds.) This... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

26.	[no image]	Biochemistry from Wadsworth Publishing Co Inc Price: $91.79 Customer Review: I used this book for all four years of biochemistry classes while getting my B. S. in biochemistry. This book was my main reference in classes which suggested other texts. It saved me thousands of dollars because I never had to buy another book on the subject. I still use it two years later as a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


27.		Golf Anatomy from Human Kinetics Price: $12.89 Customer Review: This book presents a catalog of seventy-two exercises for those intent on developing a tour quality golf swing.

The book is handsomely illustrated and I enjoy paging... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


28.		Darwin's Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution from Free Press Price: $8.02 Customer Review: The author is making a case for the Intelligent Design theory of how life began and evolved on Earth.

29.		Introduction to Chemistry for Biology Students from Benjamin-Cummings Pub Co Price: $7.00 Customer Review: I'm sure the bound book is easy to read and easy to use. The Kindle version requires you to move back and forth between questions and answers. If you accidentially hit the wrong key, you go back to the beginning of the chapter or the next chapter. Plus, the Kindle version does not have the Periodic... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


30.		General, Organic & Biochemistry from McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math Price: $51.50 Customer Review: Quality was great, better than expected! Delivery was swift. Not a problem in site for this purchase.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
