A well-written, nicely illustrated book containing some good worked example problems. The sections entitled "connections" were enlightening. Packed with useful information.

The ultimate goal of Introduction to General, Organic & Biochemistry is to teach the chemistry of the human body, while trying to show that each subsection of chemistry is important in its own right. In its entirety it can be used for a one-year course in chemistry, or parts of the book can be used in a one-term chemistry course. It is intended for nonchemistry majors, mainly those entering health science and related fields, such as nursing, medical technology, physical therapy and nutrition. Introduction to Organic & Biochemistry requires some general chemistry background. Features: * A large amount of boxed applications of chemical concepts highlight the important information of the text more clearly for the student. * The definition of each term in the Glossary-Index is given along with the index entry and the page number. * Lists of key terms at the end of each chapter, with notation of the section number make these terms more accessible study guides for students. * Numerous problems are included at the ends of each chapter--higher level problems are indicated. New to this edition: * New material has been added, including the isoelectric points of amino acids, non-coding DNA satellites and transcription factors and their role in gene regulations. * New examples have been added of exceptions to the octet rule. * Enlarged discussion on immunochemistry, detailing the role of B and T cells.

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes Complicated Ideas Easy
Verified PurchaseI checked this book out at my local college and kept renewing it so I could finish more chapters. Finally I ran out of renewing times and decided I really needed to own my own copy.
The book is detailed and precise. It is relatively hard yet light on math and what there is is explained well. It has great graphics and clear explanations that make the most advanced topics easy to visualize and understand. The problems at the end of the chapter are great for review.
It's the best introductory chem book I've ever seen. Better than any chem course.

Verified Purchase総合的な化学、有機化学、生化学の本です。
1000mL = 1Lなど、とても基本的なことから丁寧に書かれているので
大学生に限らず、高校生や中学生にも良いかもしれません。
最初から読み進めて行けば、分からなくて躓くことは無いように思います。
図も文章も豊富です。
