5.0 out of 5 stars Buy it - Love it
Best book I've ever read on biochemistry and proteins. Don't expect it to be bogged down in the technical details, it sprints through the concepts and provides ample amounts of references for those who want more. Very well worded - some minor typos in this version - missing commas and letters - the concepts are concrete though.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great basic book
Excellent and well laid out chapters. Gives a great overview and is useful for people wishing to get a basic introduction into proteins.
4.0 out of 5 stars Nice print and good quality
worth to buy it if you need a reference book for your school.It took a several week to arrive since they ship it from India but it was o.k. for me

5.0 out of 5 stars Great textbook!
'How Proteins Work' by Mike Williamson is a great text. Its eleven chapters cover various aspects of protein structure and function. It should be applicable to advanced undergraduates, graduates, and academics. I particularly liked Professor Williamson's conversational, relaxed, and friendly writing style. He also takes care to explain in relatively simple terms with appropriate examples. This book deals with topics that other mainstream biochemistry textbooks ignore (e.g. entropy/enthalpy compensation). I found Chapters 1 on protein structure and evolution and Chapter 2 on protein domains particularly useful for my undergraduate students because they had sufficient detail, easy to follow, and interesting. Professor Williamson demonstrates an insight into 'how proteins work' that is obviously built from years of experience in teaching and research. I found this book fascinating and even simple things like the calculation of the number of protons in an E.coli cell (page 129) are a delight! Each chapter is well supplemented with good diagrams, images, and a list of cited references. Pedagogically the text uses extensive sub-headings for organisation, bold type for important terms, boxed text to distinguish more detailed explanations or interesting asides, quotations, wide margins with notes, nicely formatted tables, a list of references for further reading, referrals to relevant websites, and end of chapter problems. The book is colourful, well organised, and easy on the eyes. I like this text and have recommended it to the students in my course on structural bioinformatics. I still have a lot to read but I commend Professor Williamson for taking the time, and considerable effort, to write a great book!Dr Steven Bottomley.

Awesome seller
So Ive ordered the book before christmas and it was never delivered, so I contacted a seller and they dispatched another one without any additional costs, and it was delivered few days later. GREAT, more sellers like that!Also book looks brand new an I didnt notice any fractures.
Figures and photos are not color.
I purchased the English version from Bolo.co.jp in Japan. I'm very disappointed that all figures and photos are black and white instead of color. Is this really a normal product?I will ask Bolo Japan and exchange it.

VERY INTERESTING - I LIVE ALONE SO ANYTHING WILL DO.......
Clever stuff
Bought for my son doing a Masters in Bio-Chemistry. I took the time to read some of it and found it surprisingly understandable due to it being clearly written with good diagrams to aid understanding. My son of course found the book more interesting and did a review on it for the author so he might be a bit biased but found it both helpful and insightful. if this is your subject and you are new to it, I would recommend it as a good read and reference.
