Cengage Learning, Dec 15, 2008 - Science - 992 pages

GENERAL, ORGANIC, AND BIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY’S clear explanations, engaging and useful visual support, and effective pedagogy combine to make this textbook ideal for allied health majors. Author Stephen Stoker ensures appropriate preparation for biochemistry by revising the biochemistry chapters first and then tailoring general and organic sections to support that presentation of the material. Early chapters focus on fundamental chemical principles while later chapters build on the foundation of these principles, developing the concepts and applications central to organic and biological chemistry. Stoker also restricts the coverage of mathematics to only what is necessary.
