Chemistry enables our eyes to detect the world around us; it
determines whether something tastes sweet or sour; it helps genetic
information pass accurately from one generation to the next.
Ultimately, chemistry powers life itself. We don't need to dig very
deep to answer the question: why do biologists need chemistry?
Building on the success of the first three editions, Chemistry for
the Biosciences introduces students to all the chemistry they need
to understand the biological world. Renowned for its clear and
straightforward explanations, the book uses everyday examples and
analogies throughout to help students get to grips with chemical
concepts, and presents them in context of biological systems
wherever possible so they can see how chemistry relates to their
wider studies. With topics drawn from organic, physical, and
inorganic chemistry, students will encounter a broad range of
essential concepts. Chemistry for the Biosciences includes many
learning features - both in print and online - to help students
grasp these concepts as quickly and thoroughly as possible. From
the self-check questions throughout each chapter to help
consolidate learning, to the Chemical Toolkits and Maths Tools that
help students explore terminology, methods, and numerical skills
that may be unfamiliar, the book is written to be a true course
companion for students on biological and biomedical science degrees
- one that will help them not only remember the essentials, but
really understand them, setting students up for success in their
later studies. Digital formats and resources The fourth edition is
available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of
formats, and is supported by online resources. - The ebook offers a
