Overview

General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry: Structures of Life was written and designed to help you prepare for a career in a health-related profession, such as nursing, dietetics, respiratory therapy, and environmental and agricultural science. This text assumes no prior knowledge of chemistry and strives to make the study of chemistry an engaging and positive experience for you by relating the structure and behavior of matter to its role in health and the environment.

The 6th Edition introduces more problem-solving strategies and more problem-solving guides — all to help you become a critical thinker by understanding scientific concepts. The author's goal is to help you to learn and enjoy chemistry, relate chemistry to careers that may interest you, develop problem-solving skills that lead to your success in chemistry and promote your learning and success in chemistry.
