## Summary

Cells are wet bags of organic chemistry. Biochemistry is the study of those reactions — what molecules, organised how, doing what. Reductive in method; vast in subject matter. Key sections include: Bio chemistry.; Opening Life is chemistry.; Chapter I From iatrochemistry to biochemistry.; Chapter II The solvent.; Chapter III Proteins.; Chapter IV Enzymes.; Chapter V Nucleic acids.; Chapter VI Sugars and lipids.; Chapter VII ATP, the energy currency.; Chapter VIII Glucose to pyruvate..
