Ideally, yes, it's a good test of whether or not you want to get involved in biology.

 

It you can't memorize the cell-signalling pathways (at least this) that are presented (and gain an understanding for the networks displayed through the book), then you more than likely are not cut-out for biology.

hi, I would suggest to go for generalized science books so that u become more focussed...some of the books that i can reccomend are ' origin of species' by Charles Darwin or Phantoms in the Brain by V.S. Ramchandran....these are fascinating books will inculcate a lot of interest in science...i think then u should towards molecular and cell biology...if in case u r already done with these books go for a book called ' molecular biology of the gene' by Watson and others.
