Description
This text should be suitable for brief, one-term undergraduate-level courses in basic organic chemistry, generally taken by allied health, nutrition and/or physical therapy majors. It introduces carefully selected core concepts of organic chemistry, brings them together with unifying principles, and relates them to applications of interest to students and society in general. A Getting Involved feature at the end of most sections provides experiential learning. In each section, students encounter several short-answer concept questions, a sample worked problem, one or more practice problems, and references to related end-of-chapter problems. functional groups are introduced. The text features several dozen mini-essays that address the biological and health application of material, for example, Prevention of Disease and De-toxification, The Human Genome Project, DNA Fingerprinting and Mad Cow Disease. nomenclature; physical properties; uses and applications; and chemical reactions for each class of organic compounds.
