Description
Book SynopsisIntroduction to Glycobiology reveals the true impact of the sugars on biological systems, explaining their function at the molecular, cellular, and organismal level and their clinical relevance.
Trade ReviewReview from previous edition This book is an absolute must for all lecturers and students alike of glycobiology ... Wholeheartedly recommended. * Microbiology Today, November 2006 *
It covers the breadth of glycobiology very well and provides sufficient depth to provide a platform for further research. * Dr Gavin M. Brown, Lancaster University *
Others are not written as clearly or concisely as Taylor and Drickamer. * Prof Y.C. Lee, John Hopkins University *
I prefer this book highly above the other text books available. * Prof Dr J.P. Kamerling, Utrecht University *
Dr Taylor and Professor Drickamer should be congratulated on writing a textbook that presents the enormous subject of glycobiology with energy and enthusiasm and doing so in a manner that should be accessible to their target audience. * Biochemist e-volution, April 2006 *
