Designed as a guide and review, this work covers the basic concepts and terminology in chemistry that are essential to understanding the life sciences and biological phenomena. This edition features expanded sections on electronegativity, hydrogen bonding and proteins, and a new section on cellular respiration, glycolysis and the Krebs cycle. It is intended for students of biology and should also be useful to nurses.
