\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBiology of Life: Biochemistry, Physiology and Philosophy\u003c/i\u003e provides foundational coverage of the field of biochemistry for a different angle to the traditional biochemistry text by focusing on human biochemistry and incorporating related elements of evolution to help further contextualize this dynamic space. This unique approach includes sections on early human development, what constitutes human life, and what makes it special. \u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdditional coverage on the differences between the biochemistry of prokaryotes and eukaryotes is also included. The center of life in prokaryotes is considered to be photosynthesis and sugar generation, while the center of life in eukaryotes is sugar use and oxidative phosphorylation. This unique reference will inform specialized biochemistry courses and researchers in their understanding of the role biochemistry has in human life.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eContextualizes the field of biochemistry and its role in human life\u003c/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes dedicated sections on human reproduction and human brain development\u003c/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides extensive coverage on biochemical energetics, oxidative phosphorylation, photosynthesis, and carbon monoxide-acetate pathways\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e |
