David Ezra Green (1910–83) was an American biochemist who made important contributions to the field of enzymology. In this book, which was originally published in 1940, Green provides a detailed account of the 'mechanisms of cellular oxidation'. Notes and illustrative figures are incorporated throughout. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in biochemistry, the study of enzymes and the history of science.
