This new one-semester "General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry" textbook is written with the same student-focused, direct writing style that has been so successful in the Smith: "Organic Chemistry" and two-semester "General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry" texts. Smith writes with a bulleted approach that delivers need-to-know information in a succinct style for today's students. Armed with an excellent macro-to-micro illustration program and many applications to biological, medical, consumer, and environmental topics, this book is a powerhouse of student learning.
