Description
This is the third edition of this advanced textbook, written with two major objectives in mind. One is to provide an advanced textbook
covering the major areas in the fields of lipid, lipoprotein, and membrane biochemistry, and molecular biology. The second objective
is to provide a clear summary of these research areas for scientists presently working in these fields.
The volume provides the basis
for an advanced course for students in the biochemistry of lipids, lipoproteins and membranes. The book will satisfy the need for a general
reference and review book for scientists studying lipids, proteins and membranes. Excellent up-to-date reviews are available on the various
topics covered. A current, readable, and critical summary of these areas of research, it will allow scientists to become familiar with
recent developments related to their own research interests, and will help clinical researchers and medical students keep abreast of
developments in basic science that are important for subsequent clinical advances.
