Focusing on key topics important in allied health and nursing careers, this engaging book is ideal for readers who have had no prior exposure to chemistry. Emphasizing problem-solving techniques, the book takes the most direct path to biomolecules and metabolic processes, provides a wealth of worked examples to help readers understand key chemical concepts, includes novel and relevant "Health Notes" in the margins, and weaves biological and medical applications throughout.

"I enjoyed reading it. I am sure my students and colleagues will too. The examples and applications made it interesting. I have reviewed many books and this is the first GOB book in a long time that actually answers some of the questions I been asking for a long time. I especially like the 'story type' introduction part to each chapter." Coretta Fernandes, Lansing Community College "The writing style is excellent. The explanations are very good to excellent. The information is interesting and informative--the applications and health notes are well chosen, novel, and relevant. So it would be interesting to students."Suzanne Williams, Northern Michigan University
Jim Armstrong attended Harvard University as an undergraduate student and then moved to the West coast for graduate school. Since earning his Master's degree at the University of California at Berkeley, Jim has taught in the California community college system. He has been on the faculty of City College of San Francisco for the past 20 years, during which time he has taught the full range of lower-division chemistry courses, with particular emphasis on the single-term GOB course. Ten years ago, he collaborated with the CCSF biology and nursing departments on an extensive revision of the GOB curriculum, and the success of the course revision led to the writing of this textbook. Besides teaching and writing, Jim enjoys playing piano and trombone, collecting topographic maps, bird watching, and doting on his wonderful twin daughters.
