[Ebook PDF] Organic and Biological Chemistry, 7th Edition

ISBN-13: 978-1305081079
ISBN-10: 1305081072

Author: H. Stephen Stoker (Author)

Emphasizing the applications of chemistry and minimizing complicated mathematics, GENERAL, ORGANIC, AND BIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY, 6e is written throughout to help students succeed in the course and master the biochemistry content so important to their future careers. The Sixth Edition’s clear explanations, visual support, and effective pedagogy combine to make the text ideal for allied health majors. Early chapters focus on fundamental chemical principles while later chapters build on the foundations of these principles. Mathematics is introduced at point-of-use and only as needed.

Preface

The positive responses of instructors and students who used the previous six editions of this text have been gratifying—and have led to the new seventh edition that you hold in your hands. This new edition represents a renewed commitment to the goals I initially set when writing the first edition. These goals have not changed with the passage of time. My initial and still ongoing goals are to write a text in which:
j The needs are simultaneously met for the many students in the fields of nursing, allied health, biological sciences, agricultural sciences, food sciences, and public health who are required to take such a course.
j The development of chemical topics always starts out at ground level. The students who will use this text often have little or no background in chemistry and hence approach the course with a good deal of trepidation. This “ground level” approach addresses this situation.
j The amount and level of mathematics is purposefully restricted. Clearly, some chemical principles cannot be divorced entirely from mathematics and, when this is the case, appropriate mathematical coverage is included.
j The early chapters focus on fundamental chemical principles, and the later chapters—built on these principles—develop the concepts and applications central to the fields of organic chemistry and biochemistry.
New Features Added to the Seventh Edition Two new features are present in this seventh edition of the text. They are: (1) Section Quick Quizzes, and (2) Section Learning Focus Statements.
Section Quick Quizzes: Each section in each chapter of the text now ends with a “Section Quick Quiz.” Depending on the section length and the number of concepts covered, the quick quiz consists of two to six multiple choice questions which highlight the key terms and concepts covered in the section that a student should be aware of after the initial reading of the text section. Answers to the quick quiz questions are given immediately following the set of questions. The word “quick” in the phrase “quick quiz” is significant. The questions are designed to generate immediate answers. In most cases a time of no more than a minute is sufficient to complete the quiz.
Two important purposes for this new quick quiz feature are: (1) to serve as a guide to the most important terms and concepts found in the section under study, and (2) to serve as an important review system for a student when he or she is studying for an upcoming class exam on the subject matter under study.
Learning Focus Statements: Learning focus statements are now found at the beginning of each section in each chapter of the text. These statements provide the student with insights into the focus of the section in terms of topics covered and the needed learning outcomes associated with these topics….
