Harpers Illustrated Biochemistry 29th Edition PDF
The book is hard to read compare to some other medical chemistry book I have. I feel like they don't explain as well as other books.By Vincent Ta
HiBy Gloria Ramdeen Mootoo
The books that I purchased for my daughter who is a first year medical student were received in good time and in very good condition.
Thank you and I hope to get the same service in subsequent purchases,
Regards
Gloria Mootoo
