Books in the Foundations of Biochemistry and Biophysics series

This book introduces the concepts and practical tools necessary to understand the behavior of biological macromolecules at a quantitative level, going beyond theory to explain in detail how the equations are applied to the analysis of experimental measurements. An emphasis on real-world applications is a continued throughout the book.

Biomolecular kinetics concerns the measurement and analysis of reaction phenomena as a function of time. This book explains the methods used for measuring how much a reaction gets speeded up, as well as the framework for solving problems such as ligand binding and macromolecular folding.

This book introduces the physical, chemical, and biological principles underlying photosynthesis. It addresses the underlying physics of light harvesting and key spectroscopic methods, including data analysis, and covers the assembly of the natural system, its energy transfer properties, and regulatory mechanisms.
