This looks to be a fantastic text, however it does NOT come with an access code for Wiley Plus access code. That will run you another 95 dollars. I was expecting it to come with access to the online component.

This book "looks" nice but it's actually fairly hard to follow. The homework problems don't help with understanding. They don't follow logically from the chapter text.
In fact, I'm not sure why my professor requires the newest version. We pay an exorbitant amount of money for the newest version, which requires the prof to waste time assigning new problems and the student to...get the same benefit they'd have had with the 3rd edition.
No Wiley code. So, if you buy the book and the code, you're looking at around $275.
...RIDICUlOUS.
Did biochemistry change that much in a few years?
Doubtful.
