Description
Learning the fundamentals of chemistry can be a difficult task to undertake for health professionals. For over 35 years, this book has helped them master the chemistry skills they need to succeed. It provides them with clear and logical explanations of chemical concepts and problem solving. They'll learn how to apply concepts with the help of worked out examples. In addition, "Chemistry in Action" features conceptual questions checks and brings together the understanding of chemistry and relates chemistry to things health professionals experience on a regular basis.
