More than two million students have learned the fundamentals of chemistry with the "Hein approach" - and that number continues to grow! For this Sixth Edition of their best-selling book (formerly College Chemistry: An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biochemistry), the authors considered the comments and suggestions of students, instructors, and researchers in the chemical education community. The result is a revision that presents chemistry as a vital, coherent subject central to health science and related fields.
