Physical Chemistry for the Chemical and Biological Sciences (Revised)

Hailed by advance reviewers as "a kinder, gentler P. Chem. text," this book meets the needs of a full-year course in physical chemistry. It is an ideal choice for classes geared toward pre-medical and life sciences students. Or, as stated in a May 2001 review in Journal of Chemical Education, "this text meets these students where they are and opens the door to physical chemistry from a perspective they can appreciate." Physical Chemistry for the Chemical and Biological Sciences offers a wealth of applications to chemical and biological problems, numerous chapter-ending exercises, and an accompanying solutions manual. Well known for his clear writing and careful pedagogical approach, Raymond Chang has developed yet another masterpiece in chemical education.Key Features: -a student-oriented, highly readable text-traditional and flexible organization-a functional and pleasing two-color format-many worked examples in text-@1000 chapter-ending problems-an overview of key equations in each chapter-a glossary of key terms-answers provided to even-numbered computational problemsTranslated into Italian, Japanese, Korean, Spanish & Portugese
