Awesome:
Every MRS book this author publishes is awesome. This book is no exception. It's definitely not a detailed or comprehensive review. But it sure tied everything together for me, fast.
Best review if you know biochemistry:
Best one-day review book. 99 pages only!!!!But you need to have a good background in biochemistry. Clinical section is amazing and full as well as "infirmary section" on vitamins and hormones.
Do not read this book if you don't know the ropes of biochemistry.
Want to systematize your knowledge of biochemistry - read it!
Barely helpful !:
The author of this book failed to simplify clinical biochemistry and to make it ridiculously simple as the title claims. He used a children's approach for learning by utilizing cute names and funny drawings as a mnemonic tool. However, his apporach didn't succeed too well, and made the book ridiculous but not simple. I give this book poor ratings on clarity, style, and substance. It is also too expensive for what it offers. It is NOT worth every penny!!!
good quick review:
Easily memorizable, great map of pathways, another winner from the ridiculously simple crew!
