| | Chemistry: An Introduction for Medical and Health Sciences By Alan Jones
|
Book Description:
Chemistry: An Introduction for Medical and Health Sciences provides students and practitioners with a clear, readable introduction to the chemical terms and concepts that are relevant to their study and practice. Assuming little prior knowledge of the subject the book describes and explains the chemistry underlying many of the most commonly prescribed drugs and medicines. It also includes information on chemical aspects of digestion and nutrition, oxidation, radioactivity and an overview of how chemicals fight disease.
- Excellent pedagogy including learning objectives, diagnostic tests and questions in each chapter and a comprehensive glossary
- Experienced author team with many years experience of teaching chemistry to non-chemists

| | Molecular Reaction Dynamics By Raphael D. Levine
|
Book Description:
Describing chemical and physical transformations of matter at the molecular level, this book comprehensively considers fundamental theory and experimental techniques. It also covers such new topics as real-time analysis and reactions in solutions and interfaces. The addition of problem sets makes the book suitable to those studying chemical reaction dynamics, as well as a supplementary text to physical chemistry and natural science courses.
Download Description:
Molecular Reaction Dynamics is a brand new version of the classic text by Levine and Bernstein. The book delivers a much-needed, updated treatment of this fundamental topic. An appreciation of how chemical reactions occur and their control is essential to chemists and interdisciplinary fields such as materials and nanoscience, drug design and astrochemistry. The first half of the book describes experimental techniques for initiating and probing reaction dynamics and the essential insights gained. The second part explores key areas including photoselective chemistry, stereochemistry, chemical reactions in real time and chemical reaction dynamics in solutions and interfaces. Typical of the new challenges are molecular machines, enzyme action and molecular control. With problem sets included, this book is aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying chemical reaction dynamics, as well as physical chemistry, biophysics and materials science.
| | Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (Techniques and Instrumentation in Analytical Chemistry) By
|
Book Description:
This book is divided into 5 sections starting with an historic perspective and fundamental aspects on the synthesis and recognition by imprinted polymers. The second section contains 8 up-to-date overview chapters on current approaches to molecular and ion imprinting. This is followed by two chapters on new material morphologies and in the last two sections various analytical applications of imprinted polymers are given, with the last four chapters devoted to the promising field of imprinted polymers in chemical sensors.
The authors of this volume have widely different backgrounds; mainly polymer chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry and analytical chemistry, which means that this book has an interdisciplinary character and should appeal to a broad audience.
