9781891389337: Physical Chemistry for the Biosciences

Synopsis

This book is ideal for use in a one-semester introductory course in physical chemistry for students of life sciences. The author's aim is to emphasize the understanding of physical concepts rather than focus on precise mathematical development or on actual experimental details. Subsequently, only basic skills of differential and integral calculus are required for understanding the equations. The end-of-chapter problems have both physiochemical and biological applications.

Review

This is an excellent text for our undergraduate bioscience students who require advanced training in physical chemistry. It is primarily a physical chemistry textbook, and it does not scrimp on the key concepts of thermodynamics, kinetics, and molecular quantum mechanics. At the same time, the presentation style is clear and understandable, and the text is sprinkled with just enough biochemistry to maintain our students' interest.' -Alan Van Orden, Colorado State University, USA

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Chang\'s newest text has been shortened, streamlined and optimized for a one-semester introductory course in physical chemistry for students of biosciences. Most students enrolled in this course have taken general chemistry, organic chemistry, and a year of physics and calculus. Only basic skills of differential and integral calculus are required for understanding the equations. For premedical students, this text will form the basis for taking courses like physiology in medical school. For those intending to pursue graduate study in biosciences, the material presented here will serve as an introduction to topics in biophysical chemistry courses, where more advanced texts such as those by Gennis, van Holde, and Cantor & Schimmel are used. The author\'s aim is to emphasize understanding physical concepts rather than focus on precise mathematical development or on actual experimental details. The end-of-chapter problems have both physiochemical and biological applications. Seller Inventory # AMPLE1891389335
