The principal aims of this new edition - to inform students and researchers about lipids, to assist teachers and encourage further research – have not changed since previous editions.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eSignificant advances in lipid science have demanded yet another extensive rewriting for this edition, with the addition of two new authors, to cover new knowledge of genes coding for proteins involved in lipid metabolism, the many lipids involved in cell signalling, the roles of lipids in health and disease and new developments in biotechnology in support of agriculture and industry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn introductory chapter summarizes the types of lipids covered and their identification and provides a guide to the contents. Chapters contain boxes illustrating special topics, key point summaries and suggested further reading.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLipids: Sixth Edition\u003c\/i\u003e provides a huge wealth of information for upper-level students of biological and clinical sciences, food science and nutrition, and for professionals working in academic and industrial research. Libraries in all universities and research establishments where biological, medical and food and nutritional sciences are studied and taught should have copies of this excellent and comprehensive new edition on their shelves.                         \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMichael Gurr\u003c\/strong\u003e was Visiting Professor in Human Nutrition at Reading and Oxford Brookes Universities, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJohn Harwood\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Professor of Biochemistry, School of Biosciences, Cardiff University, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeith Frayn\u003c\/strong\u003e is Emeritus Professor of Human Metabolism, University of Oxford, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDenis Murphy\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Biotechnology, School of Applied Sciences, University of South Wales, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Michell\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Biochemistry, School of Biosciences, University of Birmingham, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e06 September 2016\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley-Blackwell\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781118501139\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback \/ softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e448\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34.4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44315329757324,"sku":"9781118501139","price":101.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781118501139_c6fdf401-bde0-4398-901c-1557fcd307c0.jpg?v=1780107758","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781118501139","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
