Book Description
Focusing on the needs of allied health and nursing majors, this engaging book is ideal for students who have had no prior exposure to chemistry. The author takes the time to explain how to do tasks that students find difficult, rather than just providing terse descriptions. Emphasizing problem-solving techniques without skipping steps and using terms students can grasp, the book takes the most direct path to biomolecules and metabolic processes, provides a wealth of worked examples to help students understand key chemical concepts, includes novel and relevant Health Notes in the margins, and weaves biological and medical applications throughout.

Book Description
"The goal of this text is to relate the fundamental concepts of general, organic, and biological chemistry to the world around us, and in this way illustrate how chemistry ex-plains many aspects of everyday life. This text is different-by design. Since today's students rely more heavily on visual imagery to learn than ever before, this text uses less prose and more diagrams and figures to reinforce the major themes of chemistry. A key feature is the use of molecular art to illustrate and explain common phenomena we encounter every day. Each topic is broken down into small chunks of information that are more manageable and easily learned. Students are given enough detail to understand basic concepts, such as how soap cleans away dirt and why trans fats are undesirable in the diet, without being overwhelmed. This textbook is written for students who have an interest in nursing, nutrition, envi-ronmental science, food science, and a wide variety of other health-related professions. The content of this book is designed for an introductory chemistry course with no chemistry prerequisite, and is suitable for either a two-semester sequence or a one-semester course. I have found that by introducing one new concept at a time, keeping the basic themes in focus, and breaking down complex problems into small pieces, many students in these chemistry courses acquire a new appreciation of both the human body and the larger world around them"--

Book Description
A CREATIVE, FUN, AND EFFECTIVE WAY TO LEARN HUMAN ANATOMY More than 200 illustrations If you're looking for an interesting and innovative way to learn the various parts and systems of the human body, your search ends here! Anatomy Coloring Book for Health Professions is a fresh, fun way for students to grasp the big picture of human anatomy through a regional approach (head and neck and limbs). Anatomy Coloring Book for Health Professions is designed for the most effective learning possible: The left-hand page features a numerated structure list The right-hand page has illustrations correlating to the numerated structure list Simply choose a color and shade in a term on the left and the correlated structure on the right. Repeat for each structure in the list. White space is provided to enable you to transfer anatomy and clinical information from your lecture notes to the appropriate illustration or term. After an illustration is fully colored and notes have been transferred you will have created your own personalized textbook specific to your anatomy course! You will find that coloring imprints on your mind the shape and location of each body part, making later visualization much easier. The connection between eye and hand when coloring anatomic structures will prove to be an active and effective way to learn human anatomy.
