Description
Book Synopsis Janice Smith's OrganicChemistry with Biological Topics continues to breathe new life into theorganic chemistry world. This new sixth edition retains its popular delivery oforganic chemistry content in a student-friendly format. Janice Smith continuesto draw on her extensive teaching background to deliver organic chemistry in away in which students learn: with limited use of text paragraphs, and throughconcisely written bulleted lists and highly detailed, well-labeled teachingillustrations. Because of the close relationship between chemistry and manybiological phenomena, Organic Chemistry with Biological Topics presentsan approach to traditional organic chemistry that incorporates the discussionof biological applications that are understood using the fundamentals oforganic chemistry.
