Valerian E. Kagan, Peter J. Quinn
"…well written and well referenced, especially the chapters on the chemical and physical properties of coenzyme Q and its functions…mechanisms of coenzyme Q and genetic analysis of coenzyme Q biosynthesis…is timely and the book should serve as an excellent reference for biochemists, nutritionists, clinicians and other biomedical researchers interested in coenzyme Q. It complements other coenzyme Q publications well."
